The purpose of this study was to verify the mediating effect of accepting diversity in the effects of unconditional self-acceptance on gender equality consciousness in college students. To this end, a survey was conducted on 723 students (male: 405, female: 318) enrolled in a four-year university. For analysis, the collected data was verified using correlation analysis and a regression analysis procedure proposed by Baron & Kenny (1986), and bootstrapping was performed to verify the significance of the mediating effect. The research results are as follows. First, there was a significant correlation between unconditional self-acceptance, diversity acceptance, and gender equality consciousness. Second, in the relationship between unconditional self-acceptance and gender equality consciousness, the mediating effect of diversity acceptance was partially significant. Finally, the significance and implications of this study, and limitations for subsequent studies were suggested.
The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of mindfulness in romantic relationships, between irrational relationship beliefs, aggression. The sample randomized online and offline questionnaire survey of 304 unmarried men and women over 20 years old. From this survey, 297 participants except 7 who had no experience of romantic relationships were analyzed. Used measures were as follows: the irrational relationship belief scale, aggression scale and mindfulness scale. The results of this study are as follows. First, the higher the irrational relationship belief, the higher the aggression significant the main effect was. Second, the moderated effect of mindfulness was significant in the effect of irrational relatioship beliefs on aggression. Also aggression is different depending on the level of mindfulness. Through this study, we indicate mindfulness effectively moderated the aggression of the who has an irrational realtionship beliefs.
The purpose of this study was to examine the sequential mediating effects of collective self-esteem and self-silencing on the relationship between perceived gender discrimination and psychological distress. 350 female workers of 20-30s participated in this study. Regression analyses and tests of indirect effects using bootstrapping revealed that there were direct effect of gender discrimination affecting psychological distress, as well as an indirect effect of collective self-esteem leading to self-silencing which then affects psychological distress. These results suggest that the sequential path of collective self-esteem and self-silencing may be important mechanism through which gender discrimination contributes to an increased risk of psychological distress. Based on these findings, implications of this study, suggestions for intervention and future tasks were discussed.
The purpose of this study was to examine whether selfie editing mediates the relationship between perfectionistic self-presentation and disordered eating attitudes, and to determine whether internalization of sociocultural attitudes towards appearance moderates the significant mediation effects identified. Participants were 253 Korean female high school students and they completed measures of perfectionist self-presentation, the sociocultural attitudes towards appearance, selfie editing, and disordered eating attitudes. The collected data were analyzed with SPSS 25.0 and PROCESS macro(Hayes, 2013). Results indicated that perfectionistic self-presentation was positively related to disordered eating attitudes and this relationship was mediated by selfie editing. Furthermore, internalization of sociocultural attitudes towards appearance moderated the relationship between selfie editing and disordered eating attitudes. Last, internalization of sociocultural attitudes towards appearance moderated the indirect relation between perfectionistic self-presentation and disordered eating attitudes via selfie editing. Based on the results, the implication of the results and limitations of the study were discussed.
