TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Psychological resilience moderates the impact of social support on loneliness of "left-behind" children JO - Journal of health psychology A1 - Ai, Hongshan A1 - Hu, Junmin SP - 1066 EP - 1073 VL - 21 IS - 6 N2 - This study examined the moderator effect of psychological resilience on the relationship between social support and loneliness of the "left-behind" children. A total of 200 left-behind girls and 214 left-behind boys completed the measures of psychological resilience, social support, and loneliness. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that psychological resilience moderated the association between social support and loneliness. When left-behind children reported a low level of psychological resilience, those with high social support reported lower scores in loneliness than those with low social support. However, the impact of social support on loneliness was much smaller in the high psychological resilience group, compared with that in low psychological resilience group.
