高中生生命意义感的潜在类别及其与自我接纳、非自杀性自伤行为的关系OA

Objective To explore the latent profiles of meaning in life among senior high school students,and analyze their relationships with self-acceptance and non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI)behavior.Methods A total of 1 645 senior high school students were selected by cluster sampling and assessed with the meaning in life questionnaire,self-acceptance questionnaire,and adolescent NSSI behavior assessment questionnaire.Ultimately,1 585 valid questionnaires were retrieved.Latent profile analysis was conducted to identify the profiles of meaning in life.The Bolck-Croon-Hagenaars method was adopted to compare differences in demographic characteristics,self-acceptance levels,and NSSI behavior across different latent profiles.Results Four latent profiles of meaning in life were identified:moderate meaning group(56.21%),negative meaning group(9.72%),high-searching-low-presence meaning group(17.73%),and positive meaning group(16.34%).Gender and grade significantly predicted the latent profiles of meaning in life.Males were more likely to be classified into the positive meaning group than females(OR=1.62,P<0.001).Compared with grade three students,grade one and two students were more inclined to belong to the high-searching-low-presence meaning group(OR=4.05,P<0.001;OR=2.39,P<0.001).Significant differences were found in scores of self-acceptance and NSSI behavior scores among students with different meaning in life profiles(P<0.001).Specifically,students in the high-searching-low-presence meaning group obtained the lowest self-acceptance scores and the highest NSSI behavior scores.Conclusion Meaning in life among senior high school students shows heterogeneity.Gender and grade can predict partial latent profiles.Meaning in life is closely correlated with self-acceptance and NSSI behavior.Educators should attach importance to fostering and improving adolescents'sense of meaning in life and self-acceptance,so as to reduce the risk of NSSI behavior.
