Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a critical and widely recognized public issue that has been associated with various psychological problems, such as depression, anxiety, maladaptive behavior, and internet addiction, and is a significant predictor of suicide. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mediating effects of negative emotions and mobile phone addiction on self-consistency congruence and NSSI in college students by developing a model. The sample consisted of 1051 college students who completed the Self-Consistency Congruence Questionnaire, the NSSI Questionnaire, the Mobile Phone Addiction Questionnaire, and the Positive and Negative Emotions Questionnaire. Our findings revealed that self-consistency congruence was negatively associated with NSSI in college students. Mediation analysis demonstrated that self-consistency congruence indirectly influenced NSSI among college students through negative emotions and mobile phone addiction. These results suggest that self-consistency congruence can decrease the likelihood of NSSI by reducing negative emotions and mobile phone addiction. |
