The study examined a research model predicting the moderating effect of interdependent self-construal on the relationship between internal self-criticism and depression. The participants were 319 college students from the Philippines. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire directly administered to the participants. The findings revealed that internal self-criticism, but not interdependent self-construal, predicted depression. Interdependent self-construal moderated the influence of internal self-criticism on depression, and showed that the influence of self-criticism on depression was weaker among individuals with high levels of interdependent self-construal. The findings were discussed in the context of cultural orientation in counseling practice.

集体主义背景下的自我批评何时会导致抑郁

该研究检验了一个研究模型，该模型预测了相互依赖的自我构念对内部自我批评和抑郁之间关系的调节作用。参与者是来自菲律宾的319名大学生。使用直接向参与者管理的自我报告问卷收集数据。研究结果表明，内部自我批评，而不是相互依赖的自我建构，可以预测抑郁症。相互依存的自我建构调节了内部自我批评对抑郁的影响，并表明自我批评对抑郁的影响在相互依存自我建构水平高的个体中较弱。研究结果在咨询实践中的文化取向的背景下进行了讨论。
