“…When facing a stressful situation, one should consider whether they can effectively overcome the stressors based on their own personal reserves and resources, while also taking into account their capabilities and style of problem-solving as well. When one fears their personal resources may not be strong enough to cope with external threatening events, they have a tendency to fear the potential difficulties ahead and, in response, adopt more negative coping methods such as avoidance or evasion responsibility ( Zhu et al, 2022 ). According to the theory, undergraduates with stronger CC are more likely to have stronger all-round development, and be more likely to adopt positive coping methods in the face of difficulties and stress.…”

BackgroundWith the ongoing push to improve the quality of talent in all professions, academic pressure on undergraduates is gradually increasing, leading to students feeling increasingly frustrated by academic stressors. As it becomes more widespread, the resulting issue of academic frustration is attracting public attention.AimThe current study explored the relationship between undergraduate anti-frustration ability (AFA) on their academic frustration (AF), focusing specifically on the roles played by core competence (CC) and coping style (CS) in this relationship.MethodsOur sample comprised 1,500 undergraduate students from universities in China. Data collection made use of the Ability to Anti-Frustration Ability Questionnaire, the Academic Frustration Questionnaire, the Core Competence Questionnaire, and the Simple Coping Style Questionnaire.ResultsThe results showed that: (1) AFA negatively predicted the AF of undergraduates, with CC mediating this relationship and (2) CS had a moderating effect on the relationship between CC and AF. We concluded that students who employ positive CS may be more successful in alleviating their AF to a larger extent, with the mediation of CC.InterpretationThe results revealed the mechanism of AFA on AF, which will help schools consider and guide students’ skills and abilities, both academically and personally.

“…Jiang and Zhu (1999) categorized coping styles into positive and negative dimensions and developed the Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ). Positive coping (PC) involves the adaptive use of positive cognitive strategies to reframe negative events or employ problem-solving behaviors to cope with situations, leading to enhanced subjective well-being, decreased depression, and reduced social anxiety ( Wu and Zheng, 2020 ; Yang et al, 2021 ; Zhu et al, 2022 ). Therefore, positive adaptation in response to stress exposure, facilitated by PC, may serve to attenuate the impact of acute psychosocial stress on subsequent unfairness decision-making.…”

The onset age of anxiety is decreasing worldwide, yet the majority of the study conducted on anxiety were focused on adult populations. This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of psychological capital and coping style tendency on the relationship between emotional intelligence and anxiety in Chinese adolescents and provide empirical evidence for research and prevention. A cross-sectional study recruited 5747 participants from 5 randomly selected middle schools in the northeast China. Study results showed that high emotional intelligence ( P < 0.05), high level of psychological capital ( P < 0.05), and positive coping style tendency ( P < 0.05) were correlated to lower level of anxiety symptoms in adolescents. Psychological capital and coping style tendency performed partial and serial mediating effect on the relationship between emotional intelligence and anxiety. Teaching adolescents how to regulate emotions can strengthens their positive mentalities, promotes the use of positive coping strategies, and then attenuates the severity of anxiety symptoms in a nonadditive manner.
