The principle aim of the study is to investigate the mediator role of cognitive flexibility in the known relationship between adult attachment patterns and psychopathology symptoms, including depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and social anxiety. Additionally, this study aims to generate integrative data regarding the relationship between early life experiences and psychopathology using a cognitive framework.
There were 992 participants (661 women, 331 men) from 14 different colleges across 9 different provinces and. participants were evaluated using the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory, the Experiences in Close Relationship Scale-II, Beck Depression Inventory, the Maudsley Obsessive Compulsive Inventory and the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale. Structural Equation Modeling and mediator analysis were applied to the data.
The results showed that there are some partial and full mediator roles of the cognitive flexibility-control in the relationship between attachment anxiety and depression, OCD and social anxiety for both women and men.Cognitive flexibility- control does not mediate the relationship between avoidant attachment and psychopathology symptoms for men, but cognitive flexibility-control has a partial mediator role in the relationship between avoidant attachment and both depression and social anxiety for women.
The present study demonstrates that cognitive flexibility- control is an important variable in the relationship between attachment patterns and psychopathology symptoms in both women and men.
本研究的主要目的是探讨认知灵活性在成人依恋模式与心理病理学症状（包括抑郁症、强迫症（OCD）和社交焦虑症）之间已知关系中的中介作用。此外，本研究旨在使用认知框架生成有关早期生活经历与心理病理学之间关系的综合数据。
共有来自9个不同省份14所不同学院的992名参与者（661名女性，331名男性）。使用认知灵活性量表、亲密关系经历量表-II、贝克抑郁量表、莫兹利强迫症量表和利博维茨社交焦虑量表对参与者进行评估。对数据应用结构方程模型和中介分析。
结果表明，认知灵活性-控制在依恋焦虑与抑郁、强迫症和社交焦虑之间的关系中，对男性和女性都存在部分和完全中介作用。认知灵活性-控制在男性中并未介导回避型依恋与心理病理学症状之间的关系，但在女性中，认知灵活性-控制在回避型依恋与抑郁和社交焦虑之间的关系中具有部分中介作用。
本研究表明，认知灵活性-控制是男性和女性依恋模式与心理病理学症状之间关系中的一个重要变量。
