چکیده
Although the relationship between borderline personality traits and aggression is widely studied, there has been little attention to investigate the role of anger rumination and hostile attribution bias as mediators of this relationship. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mediating role of anger rumination and hostile attribution bias in the relationship between borderline personality traits and aggression in a descriptive-correlational study. The population included all the students of the Islamic Azad University of Neyshabur in 2020, from whom 211 people were selected using convenience sampling. The participants completed aggression questionnaire, borderline personality scale, anger rumination scale and hostile attribution bias questionnaire. Data was analyzed by Lisrel and SPSS26 software, using structural equation modeling. The results of this study show that there is a significant relationship between the borderline personality traits, anger rumination, hostile attribution bias and aggression (p<0.05). Also, anger rumination and hostile attribution bias mediated the relationship between borderline personality traits and aggression (CFI= 0.96, NFI= 0.95, NNFI= 0.95, IFI= 0.96, GFI= 0.90). The results of this study emphasize the importance of anger rumination and hostile attribution bias in the relationship between borderline personality traits and aggression. As a result, using or developing appropriate educational and therapeutic interventions in this field can help reduce aggressive behaviors.
