The purpose of the present research was to examine the effect of positive illusion, self-monitoring, and self-affirmation on the psychological stress responses of contemporary university students. Two hundred and two university students (82 males, 120 females) completed questionnaires based on a positive illusion scale, revised self-monitoring scale, self-affirmation scale, and stress response scale (SRS)-18. Path analysis of positive illusion, self-monitoring, self-affirmation, and SRS-18 was performed. The results of path analysis showed that self-monitoring was positively correlated with positive illusion, positive illusion was positively correlated with self-affirmation, and self-affirmation was negatively correlated with SRS-18. These results suggest the following: (1) self-monitoring tendencies improve positive illusion tendencies, (2) positive illusion tendencies improve self-affirmation tendencies, and (3) self-affirmation tendencies improve psychological health. Thus, positive illusion tendencies do not influence psychological health directly. When self-monitoring increases positive illusion as a preceding variable and self-affirmation increases as an intervening variable, positive illusion has a positive effect on psychological health.
