摘要

Although previous studies have explored the influence of perceived control on people’s health, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To clarify the relationship between perceived loss of control and perceived stress, this study recruited 515 physical education students and further examined the effects of health status, self-esteem and physical activity. Result showed that perceived loss of control significantly predicted perceived stress, with health status partially mediating this relationship, while self-esteem and physical activity serve as moderating roles. Specifically, perceived loss of control negatively influenced health status, which in turn increased perceived stress. However, this mediating effect weakened among those with high self-esteem and frequent physical activity. These findings highlight the importance of promoting physical activity and enhancing self-esteem to mitigate the adverse effects of perceived loss of control on health, and to provide strategies for improving mental health in educational settings.
