摘要
Building on previous researches, this study empirically tested the relationship between undergraduates' academic stress and their perceived psychological distress, and the moderating effects of psychological capital. Using a sample of 118 undergraduates from a university located in Northern China. The hierarchical regression analysis with SPSS 16.0 was employed to test the hypotheses. The results indicated that undergraduates' academic stress was positively related to their perceived psychological distress, such as depression; undergraduates' psychological capital was negatively associated with their perceived psychological distress, such as anxiety, and undergraduates' psychological capital moderated the relationship between their academic stress and depression. In the end, limitations and practical applications were offered.
