- Abstract
-
The stigmatization of mental health among adolescent athletes is influenced by external factors. We explored the impact of parental involvement on mental health stigma, examining the mediating roles of psychological resilience and subjective well-being. Utilizing a nonprobability convenience sampling technique, we recruited 250 Chinese university student athletes who completed paper questionnaires on site at a single time point. The results revealed negative associations between mental health stigma and parental involvement, psychological resilience, and subjective well-being. Psychological resilience and subjective well-being independently and sequentially mediated this relationship. Our findings highlight the tangible benefits of positive parental involvement in mitigating mental health stigma, as well as offering a theoretical foundation for interventions addressing mental health stigma in Chinese adolescent athletes.
