Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to test the mediating effects of ego-resilience on relationship between perceived parenting attitudes and regulatory focus among college students. Methods: In this study, 256 college students were surveyed. The collected data were put through correlation analysis using PASW Statistics 18.0. In addition, 3-stage multiple regression analyses and the Sobel test were used to test any mediating effects. Results: The findings show that the diversity of concerns and interests, emotion control, and positive future orientation, the subfactors of ego-resiliency, all have partial mediating effects on the relationship between father's care and promotion focus. Only positive future orientation had partial mediating effects on the relationship between mother's care and promotion focus. Conclusion: Father's care turned out to be an independent variable to explain better the mediating effects of ego-resiliency on relations between parenting attitudes and regulatory focus, which implies the influence and importance of father's care on college students.
