The main objectives of this study were to examine whether childhood memories of happiness and peace are associated with distress tolerance and to determine whether distress tolerance mediates the relationship between childhood memories of happiness and peace. We hypothesized that childhood memories of happiness and peace are directly and indirectly associated with distress tolerance through emotional intelligence.
Participants consisted of 538 individuals aged between 19 and 27 years and in emerging adulthood. Among these participants, 426 were female and 112 were male. The data collection tools used in this study included the Early Memories of Warmth and Safeness Scale, the Distress Tolerance Scale, and the Rotterdam Emotional Intelligence Scale. A multiple mediation model was analysed using the bootstrapping technique.
Early memories of warmth and safety, other-focused emotion evaluation, self-focused emotion control, and distress tolerance were positively correlated. Early warm and safe memories were positively correlated with self-focused, other-focused, and self-regulated emotions. However, self-focused emotion appraisal did not substantially affect distress tolerance. Bootstrapping technique indicated that early memories of warmth and safeness increased other-focused emotion appraisal and self-focused emotion regulation and increased distress tolerance. Early memories of warmth and safeness did not indirectly affect distress tolerance through self-focused emotion appraisal and other-focused emotion regulation.
We found positive associations between distress tolerance, early warmth and safety memories, and other- and self-focused emotion regulation. Early memories of warmth and safeness directly raised distress tolerance, without mediation by self-focused emotion evaluation or other-focused emotion control.
本研究的主要目的是检验童年时期对幸福与安宁的记忆是否与痛苦耐受力相关，并确定痛苦耐受力是否在童年时期对幸福与安宁的记忆之间起中介作用。我们假设童年时期对幸福与安宁的记忆通过情商与痛苦耐受力直接和间接相关。
参与者包括538名年龄在19至27岁之间的处于成年初期的个体。在这些参与者中，426名是女性，112名是男性。本研究中使用的数据收集工具包括温暖与安全感早期记忆量表、痛苦耐受力量表和鹿特丹情商量表。使用自抽样技术分析了多重中介模型。
温暖与安全的早期记忆、他人导向的情绪评估、自我导向的情绪控制和痛苦耐受力呈正相关。早期温暖与安全的记忆与自我导向、他人导向和自我调节的情绪呈正相关。然而，自我导向的情绪评估对痛苦耐受力没有实质性影响。自抽样技术表明，温暖与安全的早期记忆增加了他人导向的情绪评估和自我导向的情绪调节，并提高了痛苦耐受力。温暖与安全的早期记忆没有通过自我导向的情绪评估和他人导向的情绪调节间接影响痛苦耐受力。
我们发现痛苦耐受力、早期温暖与安全记忆以及他人导向和自我导向的情绪调节之间存在正相关。温暖与安全的早期记忆直接提高了痛苦耐受力，无需自我导向的情绪评估或他人导向的情绪控制作为中介。
