This study tested parental loneliness, family of origin environment, and a history of being bullied as predictors of loneliness in young adults. The role of social skills in young adults' loneliness was also examined. Participants were 111 young-adult-parent dyads who completed measures of loneliness and the family communication environment. In addition, young adults completed measures of social skills and history of being bullied. Predictions were tested with structural equation modeling, path analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Results showed that parental loneliness and a history of being bullied were each significant predictors of young adult loneliness. A family environment that supported open communication was negatively associated with young adults' loneliness. Parental loneliness and a history of being bullied each had direct effects on young adults' loneliness as well as indirect effects through reduced social skills.
本研究检验了父母孤独感、原生家庭环境以及被欺凌史对年轻人孤独感的预测作用，并考察了社交技能在年轻人孤独感中的作用。参与者为 111 对年轻成人-父母二人组，他们完成了孤独感和家庭沟通环境的测量。此外，年轻成年人还完成了社交技能和被欺凌史的测量。采用结构方程模型、路径分析和多元回归分析来检验预测。结果表明，父母孤独感和被欺凌史都是年轻人孤独感的显著预测因素。支持开放沟通的家庭环境与年轻人的孤独感呈负相关。父母孤独感和被欺凌史对年轻人的孤独感既有直接影响，也有通过降低社交技能产生的间接影响。
