Physical and Psychological Reflections of the COVID-19 Pandemic on University Students

Purpose: One of our purpose is to determine the relationships between the physical activity levels of university students and musculoskeletal system problems, psychological resilience, intolerance to uncertainty, and psychological distress related to COVID-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic process. Other purpose of this study is to examine whether the psychological resilience of individuals is significantly predicted by intolerance to uncertainty, psychological distress related to COVID-19, physical activity level, and musculoskeletal system problems. Methods: 860 university students participated in the study. Results: It was seen that, while the activity levels of university students increase, their psychological resilience increases, and the lowest level of psychological distress related to COVID-19 is the most active group, intolerance to uncertainty and total physical activity level significantly predict resilience. Musculoskeletal pain was mostly seen in the lumbar region in university students during the pandemic. Additionally, individuals with low back pain had lower levels of psychological resilience, vigorous physical activity, and a higher intolerance to uncertainty. Conclusion: The increased physical inactivity during the pandemic both negatively affects the psychological resilience of the students and causes musculoskeletal pain; consequently, it is important for university students to participate in physical activity in order to protect their physical and psychological health.

TAEKWONDOCULARIN PSİKOLOJİK SAĞLAMLIK DÜZEYLERİ İLE DURUMLULUK VE SÜREKLİ KAYGI DÜZEYLERİ ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİNİN İNCELENMESİ

The study aimed to examine the relationship between the psychological resilience levels of taekwondo players and their state and trait anxiety levels.Taekwondo is a martial art originating from the Far East. Taekwondo is a very popular sport in our country because it is an Olympic sport. In the literature, the contribution of Taekwondo sport to both physical and mental development is expressed. Normally, 3 rounds are played over 2 minutes, and the competition may conclude at the end of the 2nd round, provided that the athletes close the rounds with a 2-0 advantage. Athletes play an average of 6-8 competitions a day and experience a high physical and mental process until the end of the day. It is thought that the competition process may cause some psychological processes in athletes. In this process; Athletes are expected to experience some psychological processes such as anxiety, worry, fear and stress. The universe of the study consisted of 270 taekwondo athletes participating in the U-21 Taekwondo Turkey Championship. While 130 of the participants were male athletes, the remaining 140 were female participants. While 72 participants were national athletes, the age range of the total participants was found to be 16-20. The data were collected from the athletes through a questionnaire during the Turkish Taekwondo Championships. The athletes were informed before the weigh-in and they were asked to fill in the questionnaires on a voluntary basis. The completed questionnaires were collected from the athletes and stored. The socio-demographic information form for the demographic information of the athletes, the Brief Psychological Resilience Scale, and the STAI-I and STAI-II Anxiety Scales (Stated and Continuous) were used to collect the data. The analyses done in line with the options specified by the athletes were made in the SPSS 23.0 program. After the reverse items of the scales were translated, the scores obtained from the scales were summed. Then, the data were evaluated with Kolmogorov Smirnov analysis of normality. According to the results of the normality test, it was determined that the data showed normality. According to the demographic variables of the athletes, t-test was used in independent groups for paired groups and Tukey-corrected One Way Anova test was used for groups of more than two. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between the self-esteem mean score and the resilience scale mean score. The results were evaluated at the p

Validating the Arabic version of the Connor-Davidson resilience scale among university students.

The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) stands out as a widely used measure of psychological resilience. The original CD-RISC consists of 25 items, commonly referred to as CD-RISC-25. This study aims to validate the Arabic version of the CD-RISC-25 involving a sample size of 1220 participants from three universities in Jordan. The researcher conducted a methodological investigation to examine the validation process. This included an examination of the translation process and an evaluation of content validity, which was assessed using the content validity index (CVI). Construct validity was assessed through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, while convergent and discriminant validity were both evaluated using composite reliability (CR) and the square root of the average variance extracted. Results showed a prominent level of psychological resilience 76.74±15.2 among the participating university students. Regarding the validity of the Arabic version of CD-RISC-25, the CVI yielded a value of 0.88, signifying a robust level of content validity. The analysis identified four constructs that accounted for 56.26% of the total variance. The goodness-of-fit indices, including goodness of fit index of 0.91, comparative fit index of 0.91, incremental fit index of 0.93, Tucker-Lewis index of 0.94, and root mean square error of approximation of 0.048, provided strong evidence supporting the alignment between the observed data and the hypothesized constructs. Discriminant and convergent validity were found to support the validity of the Arabic version of CD-RISC-25. Regarding the reliability, it demonstrated excellent reliability, with a total Cronbach's alpha of 0.934 and all CR values surpassing the threshold of 0.70, thereby further establishing its overall robustness. The results provide substantial evidence for the validity and reliability of the translated Arabic CD-RISC-25.

Examining the indicators of the relationship between Psychological Resilience and Burnout among psychosocial counsellors who work at the prisons of the Kurdistan Region – Iraq

In the initial observations of the performance of prison staff, the researchers find out that psychosocial counsellors who work at the prisons face psychological stress when dealing with prisoners. The prisoners have different characteristics and personalities from individuals outside prisons due to the nature of life and dealings inside prisons. Having stress could reflect negatively on the counsellor’s work and professional performance, which may raise the possibility of exposure to psychological pressure and loss of interest in work in general, this case may consider one of the indicators of psychological combustion. The current research aims to identify the relationship between psychological resilience and burnout among psychosocial counsellors in the Kurdistan Region prisons, the research sample was 100 counsellors, (78 males and 22 females). To measure psychological resilience Holling scale (1996) developed by Maltby (2016) that included three dimensions was used. Maslach’s (1981) scale, which included three dimensions, was used to measure burnout. To analyze the data, mean, standard deviation, Cronbach alpha, one- and two-way t-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient was used. The results show that psychosocial counsellors have high levels of psychological resilience. However, they recorded low levels of psychological burnout. In addition, resilience and burnout significantly correlated negatively. There are insignificant differences in psychological resilience depending on gender. Yet, females recorded higher levels in the field of Emotional exhaustion for burnout than males, while the differences between males and females on depersonalization, and personal accomplishment components were insignificant.

Guided self-help mindfulness-based intervention for increasing psychological resilience and reducing job burnout in psychiatric nurses: A randomized controlled trial.

The present study aimed to explore the effects of a guided self-help mindfulness intervention on psychological resilience and job burnout among psychiatric nurses. Psychiatric nurses work in challenging and potentially high stress settings. Mindfulness interventions can improve psychological resilience and reduce job burnout of nurses. However, face-to-face delivery of mindfulness interventions may be inconvenient for individuals. Guided self-help interventions may be more accessible. This randomized controlled trial was conducted from January to August 2022. One hundred and eighteen psychiatric nurses were randomized into the intervention and control groups. The individuals in the intervention group received an 8-week guided self-help mindfulness intervention, while the individuals in the control group received a psycho-educational brochure. The Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey were used to evaluate the levels of mindfulness, psychological resilience and job burnout, respectively. After an 8-week intervention, compared with the control group, the levels of mindfulness and psychological resilience were higher, while the level of job burnout was lower in the intervention group. The guided self-help mindfulness intervention can improve psychological resilience and reduce job burnout among psychiatric nurses.

Associations of Perceived Stress and Psychological Resilience With Cognition and a Modifiable Dementia Risk Score in Middle-Aged Adults.

Psychological stress has been proposed as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia. However, it remains unclear how an individual's stress-coping ability (i.e., psychological resilience) is related to cognition. This cross-sectional study investigated whether perceived stress and psychological resilience were associated with cognition and a modifiable dementia risk score in a large community-based sample of cognitively normal adults. The moderating effect of psychological resilience was also examined. Participants (mean age = 57 ± 7 years) enrolled in the web-based Healthy Brain Project completed the Perceived Stress Scale and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Domains of attention and working memory were assessed using the Cogstate Brief Battery (n = 1,709), and associative memory was assessed using the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (n = 1,522). Dementia risk was estimated for 1,913 participants using a modified version of the Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Incidence of Dementia dementia risk score, calculated using only readily modifiable dementia risk factors. In separate linear regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, education, and race, greater levels of perceived stress and lower levels of psychological resilience were associated with poorer performance across all cognitive domains, as well as a higher modifiable dementia risk score. Psychological resilience did not moderate the effect of perceived stress on cognition or the dementia risk score. Higher perceived stress and lower resilience were associated with poorer cognition and a greater burden of modifiable dementia risk factors. Intervention studies are required to determine if lowering stress and building resilience can mitigate cognitive deficits and reduce dementia risk.

Associations between psychological resilience and epigenetic clocks in the health and retirement study.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations between psychological resilience and epigenetic clocks assessed by DNA methylation age predictions. We used data from 4018 participants in the Health and Retirement Study. Multivariable linear regression models were used to estimate the association between psychological resilience and epigenetic clocks adjusted for age, sex, race, body mass index, smoking status, and years of education. Thirteen epigenetic clocks were used in our analysis and were highly correlated with one another. A higher psychological resilience score was associated with slower DNA methylation age acceleration for the majority of epigenetic clocks after multivariable adjustment. These findings imply that people with a higher level of psychological resilience may experience slower DNA methylation age acceleration and biological aging.

Psychological well-being and associated factors among parents of adolescents with non-suicidal self-injury: a cross-sectional study.

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) impacts not only adolescents who engage in it but also their parents. However, there has been limited research into the psychological well-being of these parents. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate the symptoms of anxiety and depression among parents of adolescents who engaged in NSSI in China and the factors associated with them. A total of 400 parents of adolescents with NSSI were included. Socio-demographic information of these parents was collected. The Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7), the Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item (PHQ-9), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were used to assess symptoms of anxiety, depression, and psychological resilience, respectively. The majority of the parents were female (83.5%), married (86.3%), and had a senior high school or equivalent and lower education level (67.1%). The study found that 35.3% of the parents experienced clinically significant symptoms of anxiety (GAD-7 ≥ 7) and 40.1% had clinically significant symptoms of depression (PHQ-9 ≥ 7). Parents with larger ages and lower levels of psychological resilience were more likely to experience symptoms of anxiety and depression (p < 0.05). Parents who reported bad parent-child relationships showed a higher level of anxiety. This study provides important insights into the symptoms of anxiety and depression among parents of adolescents with NSSI. Parental age, parent-child relationship, and psychological resilience were associated with symptoms of anxiety and depression in these parents. Implications for the development of interventions aimed at addressing symptoms of anxiety and depression in parents of adolescents with NSSI were discussed.
