Abstract
This study aims to investigate the occurrence of mediating effect of Type-D personality (TDP) and resilience on the effect of perceived authoritarian parenting style (PAPS) on obsessive-compulsive personality disorders (OCPD) among undergraduate students in a university in Penang, Malaysia. A survey was conducted among 122 undergraduate students in academic year 2016, where participants were asked to complete a set of questionnaire that consisted of Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ), Type–D Personality scale (DS14), Five-Factor Obsessive Compulsive Inventory (FFOCI), and Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-25). Quantitative approach was chosen because interrelationship among variables is the overarching aim of this study instead of the depth of the phenomenon. Tests of validity, reliability, and hypotheses were conducted by using PLS-SEM. Significant influence of PAPS have discovered on OCPD, TDP, and resilience. Mediation effect was indicated by TDP, while resilience did not show any mediation effect on the relationship between PAPS and OCPD. The results indicated that the existence of TDP among participants mediates the effect of their PAPS on their OCPD, while their resilience did not mediate the same effect. Implications of the results and recommendations for further research are discussed.
