Posters

Keyword: Loneliness

Abstract: This study investigated the neuroticism-anxiety relationship using a second-stage moderated mediation (n=596,355Females,M_age=20.855). Rumination moderated this association through loneliness, indicating that high neuroticism may make an individual feel lonely but it is frequent use of rumination which might translate to anxiety symptoms. The findings can have important implications for various stakeholders.
