摘要：Objectives:To determine the level of adversity quotient and its associations with rumination,optimism,and authoritative parenting style in junior high school students.Adversity quotient is the adaptation ability to overcome problems and obstacles with a positive attitude.Early adolescence,as a critical stage of life,needs to cultivate adversity quotient.However,adversity quotient and its influencing factors in adolescents have not been fully understood.
Methods:A total of 129 students from 3 junior high schools(grade 7-9)in Chon Buri province,Thailand,were randomly recruited to participate in this correlational research study.They completed 5 questionnaires including the demographic form,adversity quotient assessment,authoritative parenting style,optimism,and rumination.Descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used for data analysis.
Results:Adversity quotient was at a moderate level with a mean of 138.78(standard deviation[SD]=21.25).Adversity quotient was significantly,positively correlated with authoritative parenting at the highest level(r=0.60),followed by optimism at a moderate level(r=0.38),and rumination at a low level(r=0.25,P＜0.01).
Conclusions:All parties responsible for early adolescents'development should enhance the adversity quotient to a higher level through campaigns promoting authoritative parenting and optimism.An unexpected positive correlation between adversity quotient and rumination warrants cautious interpretation and more studies.
