Adolescents are navigating a critical phase of developmental transition, characterized by a profound need for interpersonal communication and mutual understanding. This study investigates the relationship between childhood emotional trauma and social avoidance and distress among junior high school students, with the goal of establishing effective interpersonal interaction patterns and fostering the healthy physical and mental development of adolescents.

Methods

A model was developed to examine the mediating role of psychological resilience in the relationship between childhood emotional trauma and social avoidance and distress, as well as the moderating role of left-behind experience within this mediating pathway. Data from 577 students were analyzed using SPSS
