AB  - AIM: Older adults living alone is becoming the main family structure in rural 
      China. This study aimed to explore the mediating effect of coping style on the 
      relationship between perceived stress and mental health in rural older adults 
      living alone in China. METHODS: 356 rural older adults living alone were 
      recruited in Huzhou, China. Subjects were investigated using the Chinese 
      Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS), Chinese Coping Style Questionnaire (CCSQ), and 
      Mental Health Questionnaire (MHQ). Data were analysed using a structural 
      equation. Bootstrapping was used to validate the mediation effects. RESULTS: 
      Mental health showed significant correlations with a sense of nervousness, of 
      uncontrollability, and with positive and negative coping styles (P < 0.05). The 
      results of structural equation modeling showed a good fit for the total sample 
      (chi(2) /df = 2.684, NFI = 0.927, GFI = 0.944, RMSEA = 0.069). Perceived stress 
      (sense of nervousness and uncontrollability) impacted the mental health of rural 
      older adults living alone mainly through two mediating variables, including 
      positive and negative coping styles. The double mediating contribution rates were 
      42.11%, and 61.82%. CONCLUSION: Coping style partially mediated the relationship 
      between perceived stress and mental health of rural older adults living alone in 
      China. Consequently, to improve the mental health of rural older adults living 
      alone, perceived stress and coping styles should be the focus. Geriatr Gerontol
