Abstract

This study aims to investigate how the life stress of college students and the life satisfaction expectancy are related to their physical and mental health, and the interaction of the life stress and life satisfaction expectancy on their health. The participants were 280 college students (106 females) lived in Seoul or its suburb, whose average of age were 22.06 (SD=2.88). The psychological tests used in this research included the following: the Life Stress Scale, Life Satisfaction Expectancy Scale, Physical Symptom Questionnaire, Perceived Health Inventory, Emotion Frequency Test, Negative Affect Self-Statement Questionnaire, and the Korean Version of Subjective Well-being Scale. Results indicated that the life stress of college students related to all physical and mental health variables included in this study, and it was significant predictors of them. The life stress, especially, accounted for the 15.9% and 25.6% each of the variances for physical symptoms and depression. On the other hand, moderate effects of the life satisfaction expectancy on the relations of the life stress to physical symptoms, depression, and subjective well-being. Results of simple main effect analyses revealed that influences of life stress on physical symptoms and depression for students with lower life satisfaction expectancy were more stronger than those for students with higher life satisfaction expectancy, while influences of life stress on subjective well-being was vice versa. These means that it was identified the possibility of their buffering effect on negative results of the college students' life stress on their health. These moderate effects of the life satisfaction expectancy on health were discussed with motivational states theory and previous studies.
