Abstract
Objective To investigate the status of benefit finding in diabetic patients, and mediating effect of resilience between family support and benefit finding in diabetic patients. Methods Five hundred and thirteen diabetic patients from a hospital of Harbin were recruited as investigative subjects from September 2015 to June 2016.The resilience scale, family adaptability, cohesion scale and benefit finding scale were used in the study. Results The scores of benefit finding, resilience and family adaptability and cohesion were 55.67±12.87, 70.65±10.39 and 104.25±15.38, separately. The total score of family adaptability and cohesion was positively related to the total score of benefit finding(r=0.389, P<0.05). The total score of resilience was positively related to the total score of benefit finding(r=0.155, P<0.05). The total score of family adaptability and cohesion was positively related to the total score of resilience(r=0.112, P<0.05). Benefit finding as the dependent variable, the results of hierarchical regression analysis indicated that family adaptability and cohesion (β=0.382, P<0.01), resilience(β=0.098, P<0.01)entered the regression equation.There was a partial mediating effect of resilience between family support and benefit finding in diabetic patients. The mediating effect was 0.011, accounted for 2.8% of the total effect. The resilience was the important protective factor for benefit finding. Conclusion Family support has a direct influence on benefit finding and an indirect effect mediated by resilience on benefit finding. Key words: Diabetic patients; Resilience; Family adaptability and cohesion; Benefit finding; Mediating effect
