TABLE 5.

The comparison of the mediating effect of the cognitive reappraisal and positive effect in the relationship between Zhongyong thinking and resilience (n = 1,356).

	Effect	Boot SE	Boot LLCI	Boot ULCI	Ratio of indirect to total effect	Ratio of indirect to direct effect
Total effect	0.35	0.02	0.308	0.392	−	−
Direct effect	0.16	0.02	0.123	0.194	−	−
Total indirect effect	0.19	0.01	0.165	0.220	54%	120%
Mediating effect of CR	0.06	0.01	0.104	0.148	35%	78%
Mediating effect of PA	0.13	0.01	0.052	0.082	19%	42%

CR, cognitive appraisal; PA, positive effect.

Mediating effect of CR was Zhongyong thinking→cognitive reappraisal→resilience.

Mediating effect of PA was Zhongyong thinking → positive effect → resilience.

Boot SE, Boot LLCI and Boot ULCL were estimated standard error, 95% confidence interval lower and 95% confidence interval upper through bias-corrected percentile bootstrap method used for testing indirect effects.

The 95% confidence intervals did not overlap with zero.
