Moderated Mediation Procedure (Process Model 14) Testing the Moderating Role of Pessimism on the Indirect Association between the Frequency of Retrospective Relational Peer Victimization (PV) and Suicide Ideation Through Thwarted Belongingness (TB) or Perceived Burdensomeness (PB)

Note. Suicide ideation = Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation Inventory, Negative Suicide Ideation Score. TB = Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, Thwarted Belongingness Score; PB = Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, Perceived Burdensomeness Score; Relational PV = Retrospective Bullying Questionnaire-Modified, Relational Peer Victimization Frequency Score. Pessimism = Life Orientation Test-Revised, Pessimism Score; TB X Pessimism = The multiplied effect of TB and Pessimism Scores. PB X Pessimism = The multiplied effect of PB and Pessimism Scores.
