Abstract

Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), which refers to the direct and deliberate destruction of one’s body tissues without the intention of death, is a serious public health problem. Attachment anxiety is an important predictor of NSSI, but the underlying mechanisms between their relationship need to be further explored. This study examined the mediating role of rumination and the moderating role of meaning in life in the relationship between attachment anxiety and NSSI.
