摘要

102位台灣大學生參與了本項縱貫性研究。本研究在第一次施測時測量了壓力(包括嚴重生活事件、輕微生活困擾及主觀知覺的大學生活壓力)，人格特質(包括內外控、內外向及神經質)，以及心理健康(包括憂鬱、焦慮和身體化症狀)；在八個月後第二次施測時重複測量了心理健康。通過多變項分析，我們發現：(1)在八個月的過程中，憂鬱、焦慮和身體化症狀均相當穩定；(2)日常生活困擾仍能預測第二次施測的身體化症狀；(3)內外控亦可預測第二次的焦慮症狀。本文對生活事件和日常生活困擾之相對影響 ㄨ及人格特質在壓力過程中的作用進行了討論。

One hundred and two Taiwanese subjects participated in a questionnaire follow-up study. Measurements of stressors (major life events, minor daily hassles and perceived stress of university life), personality (locus of control, extraversion and neuroticism) and mental health (depression, anxiety and somatic symptoms) were taken at Time 1; mental health was measured again at Time 2 eight months later. Using multivariate analyses, we found that (1) depressive, anxiety and somatic symptoms were all quite stable over an 8-month period; (2) dail hassles could still predict somatic symptoms at Time 2; and (3) locus of control could also predict anxiety symptoms at Time 2. Impacts of life ev-ents and daily hassles and the roles of personality in the stress process are discussed.
