This research project examining the moderating role of the Scout Movement in supporting mental health through the shaping of personal competence is based on Bandura's conception of social development (social cognitive theory) in terms of generating a sense of general self-efficacy.
This research examined the moderating value of Scouting with regard to the connection between self-esteem and a sense of efficacy and styles of coping with stress in a group of 683 volunteers.
The results suggest that Scouting is a moderator of the relationship between the intensity of an emotion-focused stress coping style and a sense of self-efficacy-being a Scout intensifies the blocking effect of self-esteem on emotions in stressful situations, which can positively influence emotion regulation.
The features described suggest the need to research Scouting as a non-formal education strategy to support the development of young people's mental health in different theoretical and methodological contexts. This work provides conclusions regarding understanding the role of Scouting as a moderator in coping with stress and, consequently, ensuring good mental health. It detailed the knowledge pertaining to specific mechanisms thanks to which Scouting can influence the development of emotional regulation and adaptive response to stressful situations.
本研究项目基于班杜拉的社会发展概念（社会认知理论），通过塑造个人能力来考察童子军运动在支持心理健康方面的调节作用，该理论涉及产生一般自我效能感。
本研究考察了童子军活动对于一组683名志愿者的自尊与效能感以及应对压力方式之间联系的调节价值。
结果表明，童子军活动是情绪聚焦型压力应对方式强度与自我效能感之间关系的调节因素——成为一名童子军会增强自尊在压力情境中对情绪的阻碍作用，这会对情绪调节产生积极影响。
所描述的特征表明，有必要在不同的理论和方法背景下，将童子军活动作为一种非正规教育策略来研究，以支持年轻人心理健康的发展。这项工作得出了有关理解童子军活动作为应对压力的调节因素的作用以及从而确保良好心理健康的结论。它详细阐述了与特定机制相关的知识，通过这些机制，童子军活动可以影响情绪调节的发展以及对压力情境的适应性反应。
