Abstract: (24 Views)
Background: Several factors such as family functioning, anger rumination, cyberbullying, resilience, self-compassion, borderline personality traits, and psychological distress are associated with non-suicidal self-injury. Love trauma and difficulties in emotion regulation are two other factors that can predict this behavior. Despite this review of the research literature, little attention has been paid to love trauma as a predictor of non-suicidal self-injury.
Aims: The primary aim of this study was to examine the roles of love trauma and difficulties in emotion regulation as predictors of non-suicidal self-injury among students.
Methods: This research is fundamental and descriptive, utilizing a correlational approach. The statistical population for this study consisted of undergraduate and graduate students from the Islamic Azad University, Neyshabur Branch, in 2023-2024. The research sample consists of 200 individuals selected through cluster sampling from the students of the faculties of Humanities, Medical Sciences, and Engineering of Islamic Azad University, Neyshabur Branch. The tools used in this research included the Deliberate Self-Harm Inventory (Gratz, 2001), the Love Trauma Inventory (Rosse, 1999), and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale-Short Form (Kaufman et al., 2016). The research data were analyzed using stepwise regression analysis and SPSS version 26 software.
Results: The findings indicated that love trauma and difficulties in impulse control, as measured by the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, significantly predict non-suicidal self-injury among students (p< 0.05), together accounting for 9% of its variance.
Conclusion: The findings indicate that love trauma and impulse control issues significantly contribute to non-suicidal self-injury among students. Addressing these factors may be beneficial for prevention at all levels.
