Predictive Role of Emotional Repression, Anger and Interpersonal Problems in High-risk Behaviors of Tabriz University Students
Management of high-risk behaviors requires identifying influential and predictive factors. This study aimed to predict the role of emotional repression, anger dimensions, and interpersonal problems in high-risk behaviors of Tabriz University students.
This study is a descriptive-correlation study. After the initial interview, 270 Tabriz University students who had at least one high-risk behavioral experience were selected through available sampling. Participants included the "Spielberger's State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-2" (STAXI-2), the "Weinberger's Adjustment Inventory," the "Interpersonal Problem Log" (IIP-32: Inventory of They completed the Interpersonal Problems -32) and the High-Risk Behavior Questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed in previous studies, and reliability was measured and confirmed using Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed by SPSS 22 software.
Among the components of research, the components of consideration of others (β = - 0.35), aggression (β = 0.46) and support and participation (β = - 0.33), anger suppression and aggression (β = 0.49). Tendency to physical anger (β = 0.42) and anger expression- in (β = 0.29) were able to predict high-risk behaviors. Based on the coefficient of determination, it can be said that in general, the criterion variables in the model can explain 16% (R2 = 0.16) of the variance in the risk behaviors variable.
Emotional repression, dimensions of anger, and interpersonal problems are essential determinants of high-risk behaviors. Therefore, it is suggested that programs such as emotion management and interpersonal problem-solving skills be included in high-risk behavior programs.
