Description

Using a moderated mediation model, we investigated how emotion regulation, emotion socialization, and religious coping affect the relationship between close others’ stigma, self-stigma, and help-seeking among 106 Asian American students. We predicted that (a) self-stigma would positively mediate the close others’ stigma and help-seeking attitudes association, and (b) emotion regulation, emotion socialization, and religious coping would moderate this relationship. Mediation and moderated mediation analyses indicated that close others’ stigma predicted self-stigma, which in turn predicted help-seeking attitudes. This mediation model was moderated by religious coping but not emotional socialization or regulation; emotion regulation and help-seeking attitudes, however, were positively correlated.
