Recent studies have shifted the attention on the beneficial role of psychological capital from workplace to academic contexts. Moreover, the mediating role of psychological capital in the effect of social support on student outcomes remains unknown. This topic has become more imperative under the pandemic. The current study aimed to investigate the impact of psychological capital on students' well-being with family support as an antecedent and problem-focused coping as a mediator. Two hundred and eighty-one students completed the questionnaire at two time points. Results of the cross-lagged mediation analysis showed that family support positively predicted psychological capital, psychological capital positively predicted problem-focused coping, and problem-focused coping predicted well-being. Moreover, the chain mediation path between family support and well-being via psychological capital and problem-focused coping was significant. The current findings identify the antecedent and underlying mechanism behind the relationship between psychological capital and well-being, providing insights into psychological capital interventions for students.
最近的研究已将对心理资本有益作用的关注从职场转移到了学术环境中。此外，心理资本在社会支持对学生成果的影响中所起的中介作用仍不明确。在疫情背景下，这个话题变得更加紧迫。当前的研究旨在以家庭支持为前提、以问题聚焦应对为中介，探究心理资本对学生幸福感的影响。281名学生在两个时间点完成了问卷。交叉滞后中介分析结果表明，家庭支持正向预测心理资本，心理资本正向预测问题聚焦应对，且问题聚焦应对预测幸福感。此外，家庭支持与幸福感之间经由心理资本和问题聚焦应对的链式中介路径是显著的。当前的研究结果确定了心理资本与幸福感之间关系背后的前提和潜在机制，为针对学生的心理资本干预提供了见解。
