Abstract
Objective To explore the mediation role of university graduates' core self-evaluation played between perfectionism and job-selecting anxiety. Methods 200 university graduates were investigated by Chinese frost multidimensional perfectionism questionnaires, core self-evaluation scale and self-rating anxiety scale with convenience sampling method. Results ①Job-selecting anxiety had no distinct differences in gender, residence and the aspects of only-child(P>0.05), but in different subjects, it was different(science and technology(1.79±0.49), culture and history(3.21±0.50), t=-4.38, P<0.01). ② University graduates' positive perfectionism was positively correlated with core self-evaluation(r=0.31, P<0.01), while negatively correlated with job-selecting anxiety(r=-0.35, P<0.01). University graduates' negative perfectionism was negatively correlated with core self-evaluation(r=-0.35, P<0.01), while positively correlated with job-selecting anxiety(r=0.42, P<0.01). Simultaneously core self-evaluation was negatively correlated with job-selecting anxiety(r=-0.46, P<0.01). ③ Core self-evaluation played a part of the intermediary role between negative perfectionism and job-selecting anxiety.The mediating effect was 30.0% of the total effect. Core self-evaluation played a part of the intermediary role between positive perfectionism and job-selecting anxiety.The mediating effect was 34.5% of the total effect. Conclusion Perfectionism as a personality trait can calculate the level of job-selecting anxiety. Core self-evaluation plays a part of the intermediary role between perfectionism and job-selecting anxiety. It is helpful to the working tactics of university graduates. Key words: University graduate; Perfectionism; Core self-evaluation; Job-selecting Anxiety; Mediation
