Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Shopping can provide a sense of satisfaction and pleasure; however, if a person\'s excessive involvement in this behavior starts to negatively impact other aspects of their life, similar to other addictive behaviors like excessive internet use, gaming, and gambling, it may be classified as pathological. Given the lack of agreement regarding the classification of excessive shopping tendencies as a separate mental health condition or addictive behavior, taking a socio-emotional approach to explore the psychological factors that precede this behavior, may offer a better comprehension of it.
UNASSIGNED: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between attachment styles and excessive shopping behavior, as well as to investigate the potential mediating effect of defense mechanisms like splitting on this relationship. Using convenience sampling, a group of 457 stock market employees (116 female, 341 male) between the ages of 24 and 60 were recruited. The researchers utilized a set of validated psychological questionnaires to assess the employees attachment styles, shopping addiction, and splitting tendencies.
UNASSIGNED: The results obtained from both the mediation model and path analysis suggest that attachment styles do not have a direct relationship with shopping addiction. Nonetheless, the study supports the impact of insecure anxious and avoidan attachment styles on splitting. Furthermore, the findings confirm that splitting has a mediating effect on the relationship between attachment styles and splitting.
UNASSIGNED: The present study enhanced our comprehension of the subconscious mechanisms underlying shopping tendencies. Specifically, the findings suggest that excessive tendencies towards shopping can be considered a maladaptive response resulting from insecure attachment styles and the unconscious utilization of the splitting defense mechanism.
摘要:
购物可以提供满足感和愉悦感;但是,如果一个人过度参与这种行为开始对他们生活的其他方面产生负面影响,类似于其他成瘾行为,如过度使用互联网,游戏,和赌博,它可以被归类为病理性的。鉴于在将过度购物倾向分类为单独的精神健康状况或成瘾行为方面缺乏共识,采取社会情感的方法来探索这种行为之前的心理因素,可以提供更好的理解。
这项研究的目的是研究依恋风格与过度购物行为之间的关系,以及研究防御机制如分裂对这种关系的潜在中介作用。使用方便采样,一组457名股票市场员工(116名女性,招募了341名24至60岁的男性)。研究人员利用一组经过验证的心理问卷来评估员工的依恋风格,购物成瘾,和分裂倾向。
从中介模型和路径分析中获得的结果表明,依恋风格与购物成瘾没有直接关系。尽管如此,该研究支持不安全焦虑和避免依恋风格对分裂的影响。此外,研究结果证实,分裂对依恋风格和分裂之间的关系具有中介作用。
本研究增强了我们对购物倾向的潜意识机制的理解。具体来说,研究结果表明,过度的购物倾向可以被认为是由于不安全的依恋方式和对分裂防御机制的无意识利用而导致的适应不良反应。
