All analyses were conducted using SPSS 27 and Lisrel 8.8 software.
Results
The findings indicated that rejection sensitivity, cognitive reappraisal, and suppression had significant positive and negative effects on emotional-behavioral problems in students with learning disabilities, respectively. Additionally, cognitive reappraisal and suppression were able to mediate the relationships among the research variables, therefore, in addition to the direct effect, the variable of Rejection Sensitivity also affects emotional behavioral problems indirectly through re-evaluation and suppression.
