Objective:To explore the mediating effect of humor styles between individual authenticity and depression among college students.Methods:A total of 247 college students were surveyed by the humor styles questionnaire, the authenticity questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Beck depression inventory-Ⅱ.SPSS 26.0 was used for descriptive statistics and correlation analysis, and AMOS 23.0 software was used for structural equation model test.The Bootstrap method was applied to test the mediating effect.Results:(1)The individual authenticity score was (53.35±7.80), the depression score was 6.00(3.00, 11.00), and the scores of self-defeating, self-enhancing and affiliative humor styles were (15.00±3.45), (17.70±3.04) and (27.21±4.17). (2) Correlation analysis showed that individual authenticity was positively correlated with self-enhancing humor ( r=0.20, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with self-defeating humor and depression ( r=-0.16, P<0.05; r=-0.30, P<0.01). Self-enhancing humor was negatively correlated with depression ( r=-0.17, P<0.01). (3) The results of mediating analysis showed that the total effect between self-enhancing humor and depression was -0.318.The self-enhancing humor style had a partial mediating effect between individual authenticity and depression, with an effect value of -0.055 (95% CI=-0.103, -0.007), accounting for 17.3% of the total effect.The direct effect value of individual authenticity on depression was -0.245 (95% CI=-0.376, -0.119), accounting for 77.0% of the total effect. Conclusion:It indicates that individual authenticity can directly affect depression and also can affect depression through self-enhancing humor.It is helpful to understand the relationship between individual authenticity and mental health, and provide a strategic reference for preventing and intervention of depression among college students.

为进一步挖掘中国人人际关系性人格特质的内涵,研究1采用"个体中心"的潜在剖面分析方法对1911名CPAI-2中国人的常模样本在人际关系性上的表现进行整体揭示.同时,为比较中西方人际关系性的不同,研究2探讨了非华人群体人际关系性的潜在剖面结构.研究3进一步在2580名大学生群体中验证中国人人际关系性上的外圆内方的潜在剖面结构,并探讨人际关系性的亚型以及哪种亚型的人在现代社会更具适应性.中国人群体的研究结果均呈现四分类模型,但这一分类模型并没有在西方样本中复现出来,并且研究3发现中国人群体中外圆内方的亚群体最具适应性.研究结合中国传统文化中的"君子人格"进行相关讨论,为当代中国人辩证统一的"外圆内方"的文化特异性的行为模式提供历史阐释及其当代生活适应性的证据.
