چکیده

هدف: پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی رابطۀ تجارب تروماتیک دوران کودکی بر شدت اضطراب فراگیر و نقش میانجی دشواری تنظیم هیجان و باورهای خود انتقادی انجام شد.
 روش: روش توصیفی از نوع همبستگی بود. نمونه شامل 250 نفر از مراجعه کنندگان به مراکز مشاوره دانشگاه‌های غیرانتفاعی در سنین  ۱۸ تا 60 سال مشهد در سال ۱۴۰۳ بود که به صورت داوطلبانه انتخاب شدند. داده‌ها به کمک پرسش‌نامه اضطراب فراگیر (اسپیتزر و همکاران، ۲۰۰6)، تجارب تروماتیک دوران کودکی (برنستاین و همکاران، ۲۰۰۳)، خودانتقادی (تامپسون و زوروف، 2004) و دشواری تنظیم هیجان (گرتز و رومر، 2004) جمع‌آوری شد. داده‌ها با نرم افزار SPSS(نسخه 26) و  SMARPLS( نسخه 3) تحلیل شد.
یافته‌ها: نتایج نشان داد که مدل از برازش خوبی برخوردار است. در مسیر مستقیم تمامی اثرات مثبت و معنادار بودند (001/0=P). همچنین در مسیر غیر مستقیم نقش میانجی دشواری تنظیم هیجان ( 136/0=β  ) و باورهای خودانتقادی (051/0=β ) در رابطه با تجارب تروماتیک دوران کودکی و شدت اضطراب فراگیر تأیید شد؛ که هر دو معنادار بودند (05/0P<).
نتیجه‌گیری: نتایج نشان داد که تجارت دوران کودکی، دشواری تنظیم هیجان و ‌خود انتقادی به طور مستقیم و غیر مستقیم فاکتورهای مهمی در شدت اضطراب فراگیر هستند و بررسی این فاکتورها جهت مداخلات کارآمد باید مورد توجه درمانگران قرار گیرد.

چکیده [English]

Aim: This study examined the relationship between childhood trauma and generalized anxiety severity, with emotion regulation difficulties and self-critical beliefs as mediators.
 
Method: This descriptive-correlational study included 250 individuals attending counseling centers in Mashhad in 2023. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS-26 and SmartPLS-3.
 
Results: The model demonstrated good fit. Childhood trauma had significant direct effects on generalized anxiety severity. Emotion regulation difficulties (β = 0.136) and self-criticism (β = 0.051) significantly mediated this relationship (p < 0.05).
 
Conclusion: Childhood trauma, emotion regulation difficulties, and self-critical beliefs contribute directly and indirectly to generalized anxiety severity. These factors should be addressed in clinical interventions to improve treatment outcomes.
