Although past research suggests that borderline personality disorder (BPD) patients' rejection hypersensitivity may be an important factor underlying these patients' interpersonal problems, the role of cognitive factors in this association is still not well understood. The present study examined whether cognitive factors such as effortful control and intolerance of ambiguity mediated the association between rejection sensitivity and BPD features. A sample of 256 young adults completed self-report questionnaires assessing rejection sensitivity, effortful control, intolerance of ambiguity, and BPD features. Results showed that effortful control and intolerance of ambiguity mediated the association between rejection sensitivity and BPD features. The present study showed the role of cognitive aspects including both effortful control and intolerance of ambiguity in the relationship between rejection sensitivity and BPD features. However, there is a need for further research to experimentally investigate how rejection sensitivity may impact cognitive capacities in interpersonal contexts among individuals with BPD features.
虽然过去的研究表明,边缘型人格障碍(BPD)患者的易感性可能是这些患者人际问题的一个重要因素,但认知因素在这种关联中的作用仍不清楚。本研究探讨了认知因素,如努力控制和模糊容忍度是否在易感性和 BPD 特征之间的关系中起中介作用。一个由 256 名年轻人组成的样本完成了自我报告问卷,评估了易感性、努力控制、模糊容忍度和 BPD 特征。结果表明,努力控制和模糊容忍度在易感性和 BPD 特征之间的关系中起中介作用。本研究表明,认知方面,包括努力控制和模糊容忍度,在易感性和 BPD 特征之间的关系中起着作用。然而,需要进一步的研究来实验性地研究在人际环境中,易感性如何影响具有 BPD 特征的个体的认知能力。
