The Role of Psychological Resilience, Coping Mechanisms and Locus of Control in Managing Students' Perceived Stress during Exams

Abstract: With this study we provide conclusive evidence on the importance of psychological resilience, coping mechanisms, self-esteem and locus of control for optimal adaptation in situations of intense psychological stress, such as the stress perceived by students in exam situations. The data reveal that out of 120 students included in the study group, 29 students, i.e., 33.2 ⁒ were in the high stress zone and 4 students, i.e., 3.3 ⁒ were in the dangerously high stress zone, which can be explained by the poor functioning of some coping mechanisms and psychological resilience. For example, self-blame as a variable of coping mechanisms has a negative influence on the level of perceived stress and explains 49.72% of the stress level. Also, by comparison, some variables play a positive role in stress management and explain in different proportions the level of perceived stress, such as perspective-taking (35.64%), positive reappraisal (27.64%), positive refocusing (20.25%) or self-esteem (12.33%). The study also revealed that females better manage specific manifestations of perceived stress in exam situations, proving that they more easily establish interpersonal relationships, which in turn can support some healthy response behaviors, how to solve specific tasks and adapt more easily to some specific demands of academic work.

The role of psychological resilience and aggression in injury prevention among martial arts athletes.

For martial artists, the ability to manage reactions in the face of adversity and bounce back after a stressful event can have major impact on performance. The scope of the research is to investigate martial artists' level of resilience and aggression (Go-ahead, Foul play, and Assertiveness factors), what is specific to athletes and who have suffered from moderate and/or severe injuries (in terms of resilience and three factors of aggression examined), and test the possibility that a psychological variable under investigation can predict athletes' injury severity. A total sample of 154 athletes from striking combat sports-SC (karate, taekwondo, kickboxing, and boxing), grappling combat sports-GC (judo and BJJ), and mixed martial artists (MMA) participated in the research. For assessing resilience, the Romanian adaptation of the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) was used, and for aggression, the Romanian adaptation of Makarowski's Sports Aggression Questionnaire was used. An injury report form was also created and applied to athletes. The post-hoc tests (after running a single-factor multivariate analysis of variance) revealed significant differences for resilience and Foul (violent) play between the sports disciplines analyzed. A significant positive correlation was found between athletes' injury severity and assertiveness in SC and between injury severity and resilience in GC. Through the t-test for independent samples, it was highlighted that the average value for Foul (violent) play is significantly higher in athletes who have suffered mild, moderate, and/or severe injuries compared with martial arts athletes who have suffered from only mild/minor injuries. A binomial logistic regression was also performed to verify to what extent Foul play predicts athletes' injury severity. A low level of Foul (violent) play is linked with a decreased likelihood of moderate and/or severe injuries in martial arts athletes. The study findings suggest that resilience, foul play, and assertiveness have an important role in injury prevention among martial artists.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity symptoms and loss of control eating in emerging adults: Role of psychological resilience

ObjectiveThis study aimed to fill a gap in the literature regarding the role of resilience in the relationship between symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and loss of control (LOC) eating in a nonclinical sample of emerging adults. Resilience was examined as a potential moderator and as a potential mediator of ADHD symptoms and engagement in LOC eating behaviors. Improved understanding of this relationship may inform clinical intervention and risk screening methodologies for disordered eating behaviors in college students. MethodsParticipants were undergraduate students (N = 386) from a private university in the northeastern United States. Linear regression analysis examined whether greater ADHD symptoms related to greater LOC eating. Pathway analyses examined resilience as either a moderator or mediator of the relationship between ADHD symptoms and LOC eating. ResultsA direct positive relationship was found between ADHD symptoms and LOC eating (p < .05). Resilience partially mediated this relationship, such that increased ADHD symptoms indirectly related to increased LOC eating through low resilience (p < .05). ConclusionFindings indicate that undergraduate students with greater ADHD symptoms engaged in more frequent LOC eating, and that low resilience was a partial mediator of this positive relationship.

Does growth mindset benefit negative mental health among middle school students: The role of psychological resilience and gender

AbstractThe mental health problems have been increasingly threatening the development of adolescence in China, it is very necessary to explore the protective factors preventing adolescents' negative mental health. Previous studies suggested that growth mindset benefits mental health. However, the internal psychological mechanism underlying this relationship is still unclear. This study investigated the relation between growth mindset and negative mental health among Chinese adolescence, and simultaneously tested the mediating effect of psychological resilience and the moderating role of gender in the mediation process of this relation. A total of 1204 middle school students (624 male students and 580 female students) in China completed measures on growth mindset, psychological resilience, and negative mental health. The results revealed that growth mindset not only directly predicted negative mental health, but also indirectly predicted negative mental health through the mediating path of psychological resilience. Moreover, the mediating effect of psychological resilience in the relationship between growth mindset and negative mental health was moderated for females and not males. These findings indicated that intervention focus on growth mindset could improve psychological resilience and prevent negative mental health among middle school students.

The Effect of Peer Relationships on Adolescent Loneliness: The Role of Psychological Resilience and the OXTR Gene.

Based on the gene-environment interaction paradigm, this study explored the effect of peer relationships on adolescent loneliness and the role of psychological resilience and the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR). A survey was conducted in a sample of 619 adolescents, and their oral cells were collected for DNA extraction and genotyping. The results showed that (1) both peer relationships and psychological resilience significantly affected adolescent loneliness; (2) psychological resilience partially mediated the relationship between peer relationships and loneliness in adolescents; (3) OXTR gene rs53576 polymorphism moderated both the first and second half of the indirect pathway of the mediation model. Specifically, carriers of the rs53576 polymorphism A/A genotype showed a significantly enhanced effect of peer relationships on adolescent psychological resilience, while carriers of the rs53576 polymorphism G/G genotype showed a significantly enhanced effect of psychological resilience on adolescent loneliness. These findings helped elucidate the developmental mechanisms of adolescent loneliness in terms of peer relationships, psychological resilience, and OXTR gene polymorphisms.

The Role of Psychological Resilience in Predicting Parenting Self-Efficacy Perceptions of Patients Applying to Breast Polyclinic

The primary objective of this study is toinvestigate the relationship between psychological resilience levels and parenting self-efficacy perceptions of mothers with children aged 0-8 years who applied to the breast polyclinic.. The study adopted a quantitative research design utilizing a relational screening approach, and it involved a cohort of 282 willing mothers, selected through a criterion sampling technique. “Personal Information Form", "Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults", "Revised Berkeley Parenting Self-efficacy Scale" were used as data collection tools. The investigation of interrelationships among variables was conducted through both correlation analysis and structural equation modeling. The study’s outcomes reveal a discernible positive association between participants' psychological resilience and their perceptions of parenting self-efficacy. It was found that the highest relationship with the parental strategies dimension of parenting self-efficacy was with the social resources dimension of psychological resilience, and the highest relationship with the perception of future dimension of psychological resilience was with the child outcomes dimension of parenting self-efficacy. Path analysis outcomes substantiate that psychological resilience and its dimensions positively predict parenting self-efficacy. In alignment with these empirical findings, it was concluded that there is a positive relationship between psychological resilience and its dimensions and parenting self-efficacy.

The relationship between physicians' ingroup favoritism to patients and workplace violence: regulatory role of physicians' psychological resilience

PurposeThis research aims to reveal the relationship between ingroup favoritism, seen as a theoretical cause of workplace violence experienced by physicians, with pre-violence, the moment of violence and post-violence, and the role of psychological resilience in coping with workplace violence.Design/methodology/approachA descriptive, cross-sectional design was applied in the research. First, data was gathered via structured questionnaire surveys to the 169 physicians and 321 patients with appointments using the simple random sampling method in three public hospitals in the province of Sanliurfa-Turkey between June 3, 2020, and January 1, 2021. The data was then examined through variance-based structural equation modeling and regression analysis.FindingsResults indicate that the psychological resilience of physicians is essential in coping with workplace violence. The causes of favoritism behaviors were stated as a desire to protect the individuals they are with, increase their power, gain interest and cover their incompetence. It was determined that favoritism behaviors increase violence, but psychological resiliency decreases violence.Originality/valueSome unobservable markers that impose priority for a patient from one's primary group, favoritism, may predict behaviors including violence. Contrary to popular belief, violence against physicians may be prevented by hospital management and social psychology practices rather than taking legal actions or increasing physical safety procedures. Moreover, the simultaneous collection of the data used in the study from physicians and patients with an appointment makes the study more meaningful and unbiased.

Time pressure, emotional exhaustion and project manager abusive supervision in the construction industry: the role of psychological resilience

PurposeLittle research has focused on abusive supervision in the context of project management, despite its prevalence and detrimental influence on the psychological health of subordinates. Therefore, drawing on affective event theory (AET), this study sought to investigate supervisor-level antecedents of abusive supervision by considering the mediating role of emotional exhaustion and moderating role of psychological resilience.Design/methodology/approachUtilizing a time-lagged design, data were collected through questionnaires from project managers and their immediate subordinates in construction projects. PROCESS macros were utilized to analyze a sample of 241 supervisor-subordinate dyads.FindingsThe findings revealed that time pressure and emotional exhaustion significantly predicted project manager abusive supervision. The authors also found that emotional exhaustion mediates the relationship between time pressure and project manager abusive supervision. Furthermore, the results show that highly resilient project managers become less emotionally exhausted when facing time pressure. Lastly, psychological resilience moderated the indirect effect of time pressure on project manager abusive supervision through emotional exhaustion.Originality/valueAccording to Fordjour et al., abusive supervision is a critical factor that deteriorates the psychological health of subordinates in the project. Nevertheless, this phenomenon remains uninvestigated. Therefore, this research contributes to the project management literature by investigating key predictors of abusive supervision, thus filling both a theoretical and practical gap.

Exploring the relationship between mental health literacy and psychological distress in adolescents: A moderated mediation model

Previous studies on the relationship between mental health literacy and psychological distress were rich, but little was known about the influence mechanism between them, and almost no research was found on the role of psychological resilience and subjective socio-economic status in the relationship between them. This study used a moderated mediation model to test the mediating effect of psychological resilience on the relationship between mental health literacy and psychological distress, and the moderating effect of subjective socioeconomic status in Chinese adolescents. We investigated 700 junior high school students in Inner Mongolia, China through online survey. The results are as follows: (1) Mental health literacy is a negative predictor of adolescents' psychological distress; (2) psychological resilience mediated the association between mental health literacy and psychological distress; (3) The first half of the model, that is, the relationship between mental health literacy and psychological resilience, is moderated by subjective socioeconomic status. Specifically, for adolescents with low subjective socioeconomic status, the positive predictive effect of mental health literacy on psychological resilience is obviously enhanced. The current findings would contribute to a deep understanding of the relationship among adolescents' mental health literacy, psychological resilience, subjective socioeconomic status and psychological distress, which may be of great significance to the prevention of adolescents' psychological distress.

FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS AND DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS DURING COVID: THE MODERATING ROLE OF RESILIENCE

Abstract Financial hardships during COVID (FHDC) are a particularly salient stressor that older people faced during the pandemic. Financial stress is associated with increased depressive symptoms and may be especially consequential to mental health among older people who have fewer resources (i.e., financially vulnerable). Recent evidence shows that psychological resilience has important protective effects for mental health among older adults who experience major stressors. This study, based on the recently released full 2020 core wave of the Health and Retirement Study, examines the association between having experienced one or more major financial setbacks following the start of the pandemic and depressive symptoms. We evaluate the consequences of FHDC for mental health, how FHDC are associated with previous financial vulnerability, and the role of psychological resilience in shaping the effects of FHDC. Results show that having experienced FHDC is associated with an increase in depressive symptoms. In addition, reporting financial vulnerabilities four years prior to the pandemic was also associated with increased depressive symptoms. Finally, psychological resilience was associated with a significant, protective effect on depressive symptoms, and moderated the consequences of FHDC. Specifically, we find that those who had FHDC and had average or below average resilience experienced significant increases in depressive symptoms, but those with above average resilience did not experience increases in depressive symptoms despite having FHDC, accounting for the consequences of previous financial vulnerabilities. These results suggest that psychological resilience has potential to be a protective resource for mental health consequences of financial stress among older adults.

The Role of Psychological Resilience and Family Dysfunction in the Relationship Between Parental Behavioural Addictions and Adult Mental Health

The current study assesses the mediating role that family dysfunction and psychological resilience have in the relationship between growing up with a parent with parental addictions and developing mental health difficulties and/or addiction in adulthood. Participants included 292 adults (76.1% women), who completed an online questionnaire reporting on whether their parent(s) had behavioural addictions, their family environment during childhood, the degree of substance and behaviours dependence, and psychological symptoms and psychological resilience in the present. It was found that parental behavioural addictions were linked to more disruptive family environments during childhood and that disruptive family environments were then linked to reduced levels of psychological resilience, which in turn were linked to lower levels of mental health. Overall, the results suggest that a disruptive family environment during childhood together with psychological resilience seem to play a key role when looking at long–term negative impact of parental behavioural addictions.

Hemşirelerde Tükenmişlik ve Dinî Başa Çıkma İlişkisinde Psikolojik Dayanıklılığın Aracı Rolü

Hemşirelerde Tükenmişlik ve Dinî Başa Çıkma İlişkisinde Psikolojik Dayanıklılığın Aracı Rolü Öz Hemşireler, hastalarla ve ekip arkadaşlarıyla sürekli etkileşim hâlinde olan sağlık çalışanlarıdır. Bu durum onların tükenmişlik riskini artırmaktadır. Salgın süreciyle beraber, bu risk daha da artmıştır. Çünkü bulaşıcılık, ölüm tehdidi, artan iş yükü, sürecin belirsizliği, hastayla uzun süreler bir arada olma ve aileden ayrı kalma gibi hususlar onlar için stres düzeyini artırmaktadır. Hemşireler, tüm bu stres faktörleriyle mücadele ederken başa çıkmalarını destekleyecek hususlardan da beslenmektedir. Bu bağlamda, psikolojik dayanıklılıklarını besleyen ya da zayıflatan bir faktör olarak dinî başa çıkma eğilimlerini incelemek önem kazanmaktadır. Oysa, gerçekleştirilen çalışmalar incelendiğinde hemşirelerde tükenmişlik ve psikolojik dayanıklılık bağlamında olumlu ve olumsuz dinî başa çıkma tutumlarıyla ilişkili herhangi bir araştırmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu araştırmada, tükenmişliğin yüksek görüldüğü çalışan gruplarından biri olan hemşirelerde tükenmişlik, psikolojik dayanıklılık ve olumlu/olumsuz dinî başa çıkma düzeyleri arasındaki etkileşimin tespiti amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca olumlu/olumsuz dinî başa çıkma ile tükenmişlik sendromu ilişkisinde psikolojik dayanıklılığın ara bulucu rolünü irdelemek de araştırmanın amaçları arasında yer almaktadır. Bunlara ek olarak, bireylerin medeni durum ve yaş gruplarının bu değişkenler üzerinde herhangi bir farklılığa yol açıp açmadığı da ele alınmıştır. Araştırma, ilişkisel tarama modeline dayalı oluşturulmuştur. Çalışmaya, sağlık tesislerinde görev yapan 250 hemşire katılmıştır. Katılımcılara Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Maslach Tükenmişlik Ölçeği, Kısa Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği ve Dinî Başa Çıkma Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Kartopu örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılan katılımcıların veri analizleri IBM SPSS Statistics 26 ve Smart PLS Version 3.3.2 paket yazılımında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hemşirelerde, evliliğin olumlu dinî başa çıkma üzerinde olumlu bir etkisinin olduğu görülmektedir. Buna göre evli olan hemşirelerin bekarlara göre olumlu dinî başa çıkma eğiliminin daha yüksek olduğu söylenebilir. Bu bulgular, H1 hipotezinin “Evli hemşireler bekârlara nazaran olumlu dinî başa çıkmayı daha çok kullanmaktadırlar” şeklindeki ilk kısmını doğrulamaktadır. Diğer yandan medeni durumun olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik sağlamlık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerinde anlamlılık derecesinde herhangi bir etkisi tespit edilememiştir. Dolayısıyla, H1 hipotezinin ikinci kısmı ve H2 hipotezinin tamamı bulgularca desteklenmemiştir. Hemşirelerde yaşın dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik dayanıklılık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerindeki etkileri incelendiğinde; olumlu dinî başa çıkma, olumsuz dinî başa çıkma ve psikolojik dayanıklılığa anlamlılık derecesinde herhangi bir etkisi tespit edilememiştir. Buna karşın yaş ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki vardır. Hemşirelerin yaş seviyeleri arttıkça tükenmişlik sendromuna eğilimlerinin azaldığı söylenebilir. Elde edilen bulgular göstermektedir ki; H3’ün tamamı ve H4’ün ilk kısmı reddedilirken; H4’ün ikinci kısmını ifade eden “Tükenmişlik yaşa bağlı azalmaktadır” desteklenmektedir. Hemşirelerde, olumlu dinî başa çıkmanın diğer değişkenler üzerindeki etkileri incelendiğinde, psikolojik sağlamlık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerinde olumlu veya olumsuz istatiksel olarak anlamlılık ifade eden bir etkisi görülmemektedir. Dolayısıyla, çalışmanın araştırma maddelerinden biri olan psikolojik sağlamlığın olumlu dinî başa çıkma ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında aracı rolü oynama durumu istatiksel olarak mümkün değildir. Buradan hareketle, H5 ve H8 hipotezlerinin reddedildiği söylenebilir. Olumlu dinî başa çıkmanın aksine olumsuz dinî başa çıkmanın hemşirelerde hem psikolojik dayanıklılığa hem de tükenmişlik sendromuna etki ettiği görülmektedir. Olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik dayanıklılığı olumsuz bir şekilde etkilemektedir. Diğer bir ifadeyle, hemşirelerin olumsuz dinî başa çıkma eğilimi arttıkça psikolojik dayanıklılıklarının düşüş eğilimi gösterdiği söylenebilir. Diğer yandan, psikolojik dayanıklılık ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki vardır. Hemşirelerin, psikolojik dayanıklılık seviyeleri azaldıkça tükenmişlik sendromuna eğilimleri artmaktadır. Dolayısıyla, burada psikolojik dayanıklılık faktörü diğer iki değişken arasında aracılık rolü oynamaktadır. Bu endirekt etkiyi açmak gerekirse, olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, hemşirelerin psikolojik dayanıklılıklarını azaltmakta ve bu nedenle de dolaylı şekilde tükenmişlik seviyelerini arttırmaktadır. Olumsuz dinî başa çıkmanın, tükenmişlik sendromu üzerindeki etkisi istatiksel olarak anlamlıdır. Katsayısı 0,208 olan pozitif etkinin 0,077’lik kısmı psikolojik dayanıklılık üzerinden endirekt şekilde gerçekleşmektedir. Bu bulgular doğrultusunda, H6, H7 ve H9 hipotezlerinin desteklendiği söylenebilir.

Investigating The Role of Psychological Resilience and Self Esteem In Death Anxiety among Older Adults

The Influence of Sense of Place on Elementary School Students' Creativity During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Mediating and Buffering Effects of Psychological Resilience.

PurposeTo understand the relationship between sense of place and creativity and the mechanisms that affect this relationship, the researchers constructed a mediation model to examine the effect of sense of place on creativity and the mediating role of psychological resilience in elementary school students during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsA total of 1,711 students in an elementary school in Beijing, China, were surveyed using Chinese-language versions of the Sense of Place Scale, the Psychological Resilience Scale-Short Version, and the Innovative Behavior Inventory. SPSS (version 23) and PROCESS plug-in (version 3.3) were used for correlation and mediation analyses.Results(1) Correlation analysis revealed that sense of place was positively related to psychological resilience (r = 0.445, p < 0.01) and creativity (r = 0.590, p < 0.01). (2) Psychological resilience was also positively correlated with creativity (r = 0.625, p < 0.01). (3) Further, after controlling for gender and grade level, it was found that sense of place directly predicted creativity and that sense of place also indirectly predicted creativity through psychological resilience. The direct effect (0.45) and the mediating effect (0.23) accounted for 65.95 and 34.05% of the total effect, respectively.ConclusionThe results demonstrate that sense of place is a positive predictor of creativity and can play a facilitating role to some extent. Moreover, psychological resilience is a mediating factor, acting as a buffer between sense of place and creativity. These results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms influencing creativity.

Role of resilience in healthcare workers' distress and somatization during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-sectional study across Flanders, Belgium.

AimTo evaluate the impact and the possible role of psychological resilience in the COVID‐19 pandemic outbreak on healthcare workers’ mental and physical well‐being in Belgium.DesignThis cross‐sectional, survey‐based study enrolled 1376 healthcare workers across Belgium from 17 April 2020 to 24 April 2020.MethodsThe study sample consisted of direct care workers (nurses and doctors), supporting staff and management staff members. The main outcomes are resilience, distress and somatization.ResultsHigher educational level was associated with lower symptoms of distress and somatization. Physicians exhibited the lowest risk of experiencing heightened levels of distress and somatization. Controlling for confounding factors, higher levels of resilience were associated with a 12% reduced chance of increased distress levels and 5% lower chance of increased somatization levels. Our results suggest the potentially buffering role of mental resilience on those working on the frontline during the COVID‐19 pandemic outbreak.
