Abstract:

This study took 812 Chinese college students as samples and adopted the questionnaire survey method, using a variety of statistical analysis methods to explore the relationships among implicit personality, psychological resilience, and emotional regulation. The results showed that females, students majoring in humanities and social sciences, those from rural areas, and non-only children accounted for a relatively large proportion in the sample. The implicit personality, psychological resilience, and emotional regulation abilities of college students were all at a moderate level. Gender, grade, major, and whether they were only children had significant effects on these three aspects, while the place of origin had no significant impact. There were significant positive correlations among all dimensions of implicit personality, psychological resilience and its dimensions, and emotional regulation and its dimensions. The entity view, incremental view, hardiness in psychological resilience, and overall psychological resilience had significant positive predictive effects on emotional regulation. Based on this, it is recommended that schools strengthen the education of emotional regulation and psychological resilience, enhance the guidance of implicit personality concepts, pay attention to the differences of different groups, and build a support system to promote the mental health development of students.
