چکیده

هدف: مطالعۀ حاضر با هدف بررسی نقش میانجی تفکر دوپاره و اعتماد اجتماعی در ارتباط بین ابعاد دلبستگی ناایمن و صفات اختلال شخصیت مرزی انجام شد.
 
روش: جامعۀ آماری پژوهش متشکل از دانشجویان دانشگاه‌های 20 استان ایران بود. جمع‌آوری داده‌ها از بهمن 1399 تا اسفند 1399 ادامه یافت. با به‌کارگیری طرح همبستگی مبتنی بر مدل‌یابی معادلات ساختاری و نمونه‌گیری در دسترس، 436 دانشجو به‌عنوان نمونه انتخاب شدند. شرکت‌کنندگان مجموعه‌ای از پرسشنامه‌های خودگزارش‌دهی، شامل سیاهۀ سنجش شخصیت– خرده‌مقیاس مرزی، سیاهۀ دلبستگی بزرگسال، پرسشنامۀ اعتماد اجتماعی و سیاهۀ تفکر دوپاره را تکمیل کردند. از مدل‌یابی معادلات ساختاری برای آزمون مدل پیشنهادی استفاده شد.
 
یافته‌ها: نتایج مدل میانجی‌گری سریالی نشان داد که تفکر دوپاره، میانجی‌گر رابطۀ ابعاد دلبستگی ناایمن و اعتماد اجتماعی بود و از سوی دیگر، اعتماد اجتماعی صفات مرزی را پیش‌بینی می‌کرد. متغیرهای پیش‌بین به‌ترتیب 4، 49 و 60 درصد از واریانس تفکر دوپاره، اعتماد اجتماعی و صفات شخصیت مرزی را تبیین می‌کردند.
 
نتیجه‌گیری: مسیری که ناامنی‌های دلبستگی از طریق آن بر صفات اختلال شخصیت مرزی تأثیر می‌گذارند، برای هر یک از ابعاد دلبستگی متفاوت است. به‌علاوه، بی‌اعتمادی اجتماعی، و نه تفکر دوپاره، سازوکاری است که ناایمنی دلبستگی از مسیر آن به صفات اختلال شخصیت مرزی منجر می‌شود. بنابراین، پرداختن به بی‌اعتمادی اجتماعی می‌تواند به درک جامع‌تری از اختلال شخصیت مرزی بیانجامد.

چکیده [English]

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of dichotomous thinking and social trust in the relationship between insecure attachment dimensions and features of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).
 
Method: The statistical population consisted of university students from 20 provinces in Iran, with data collected from February to March 2021. A correlational design based on structural equation modeling was used, involving 436 university students selected through convenience sampling. Participants completed self-report measures, including the Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Scale, Adult Attachment Inventory, Social Trust Questionnaire, and Dichotomous Thinking Inventory. Structural equation modeling was applied to test the proposed model.
 
Results: The serial mediation model showed that dichotomous thinking mediated the relationship between insecure attachment dimensions and social trust, which in turn predicted features of BPD. The predictor variables explained 4%, 50%, and 60% of the variance in dichotomous thinking, social trust, and BPD features, respectively.
 
Conclusion: The pathway by which attachment insecurities influence BPD features varies by attachment dimension. Furthermore, social mistrust, rather than dichotomous thinking, serves as a key mechanism through which attachment insecurities contribute to BPD features. Addressing social mistrust may provide a more comprehensive understanding of BPD.
