Exploring the Influencing Factors and Mechanisms of Social Exclusion

As a prevalent social psychological phenomenon, social exclusion exerts a profound impact on individuals' mental health and social behavior.Building on a review of existing research, this paper categorizes the influencing factors of social exclusion into two major types: environmental factors and individual factors.It further analyzes their mechanisms from the perspectives of culture, social support, money, drugs, rejection sensitivity, attachment styles, and attribution styles.In addition, drawing on recent studies, this paper explores the moderating effects of cynicism and exclusion types on subsequent behavioral responses to social exclusion.The aim of this paper is to provide a systematic theoretical foundation for both theoretical research and practical interventions on social exclusion.
