The objective of this study is to test a longitudinal model that analyses the direct effect of negative emotions (anger, depression and anxiety, wave 1) on prosocial and aggressive behaviour (wave 2) in adolescents. And the indirect effect of negative emotions (wave 1) on prosocial and aggressive behaviour (wave 2) through regulatory emotional self-efficacy. Data was obtained from 417 adolescents in a two-wave longitudinal study (225 girls, M age = 14.70 years) from schools located in Valencia, Spain. SEM was employed to explore longitudinal models. The results showed that anger had a direct relationship with prosocial behaviour and aggression, measured two years later. However, the depression and anxiety states did not predict prosociality and aggressiveness. The mediation role of regulatory emotional self-efficacy between negative emotion and behaviours was only partially confirmed. Finally, only the perception of self-efficacy in expressing positive affect is related to prosociality and aggressiveness.
本研究旨在检验一个纵向模型，该模型分析了负性情绪（愤怒、抑郁和焦虑，第 1 波）对青少年亲社会和攻击行为（第 2 波）的直接影响。以及负性情绪（第 1 波）通过情绪调节自我效能感对亲社会和攻击行为（第 2 波）的间接影响。数据来自西班牙巴伦西亚学校的一项两波纵向研究中的 417 名青少年（225 名女孩，M 年龄=14.70 岁）。采用 SEM 探索纵向模型。结果表明，愤怒与两年后测量的亲社会行为和攻击行为呈直接关系。然而，抑郁和焦虑状态并不能预测亲社会性和攻击性。情绪调节自我效能感在负性情绪和行为之间的中介作用仅得到部分证实。最后，只有表达积极情绪的自我效能感与亲社会和攻击性有关。
