ROLE OF RESILIENCE IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DEATH ANXIETY AND DISSOCIATIVE SYMPTOMS AMONG BEREAVED EARLY ADULTS

Current study aimed to explore the role of resilience in relationship between death anxiety and dissociative symptoms among bereaved early adults. Correlation research design was applied. Sample consisted (n =250) participants with age ranging between 18-30 years (Mean =21.39; SD =2.52). Sample included two categories (n =150) bereaved with having equal proportion of men (n =75) and women (n =75), who have experienced the death of one or both of the parents during the two years and control sample consisted of (n=100) non-bereaved, male (n =50) and female (n =50). English version of Arabic Scale of Death Anxiety (ASDA), Severity of Dissociative Symptoms Adult, Brief Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES-B) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were administered to the participants. The results depicted positive correlation between death anxiety and dissociative symptoms, whereas death anxiety was inversely correlated resilience. Multiple regression analysis revealed that death anxiety was a significant predictor of dissociative symptoms. It was also indicated from the result that the bereaved adults experienced more dissociative symptoms and were less resilient as compared to non-bereaved adults. However bereaved women tended to be more resilient as compared to bereaved men. The finding of the study might provide directions in designing interventions for the bereaved to improve resilience through the use of various strategies.

Mediating role of resilience in relationship between negative life events and depression among Chinese adolescents

PurposeTo explore whether resilience acted as a protective factor between negative life events and depression among Chinese adolescents. MethodUsing convenient sampling, students (N = 278) in two junior and senior high schools in Wuhan, China were investigated, and structural equation model was used to examine the mediating effect of resilience in the relationship between negative life events and depression. ResultsResilience was negatively correlated with negative life events and depression, and negative life events were positively correlated with depression. Resilience partially mediated the effects of negative life events on depression in Chinese adolescents. ConclusionsIt is important for educators to improve adolescents' resilience to mitigate the effects of negative life events on depression.

Burnout and health among critical care professionals: The mediational role of resilience

ObjectivesTo analyse the mediational role of resilience in relationships between burnout and health in critical care professionals; to determine relationships among resilience level, three burnout dimensions, and physical/mental health; and to establish demographic differences in psychological variables evaluated. DesignCross-sectional study. Participants/settingA total of 52 critical care professionals, mainly nurses, were recruited from an intensive care unit of Madrid (Spain). MethodAll participants were assessed with the questionnaires 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey, and Short Form-12 Health Survey. ResultsNo demographic differences were found. Three burnout dimensions were negatively associated with mental health and resilience. Mediational analyses revealed resilience mediated 1) the relationships between emotional exhaustion and depersonalisation with mental health (partial mediations) and 2) the relationship between personal accomplishment and mental health (total mediation). ConclusionsResilience minimises and buffers the impact of negative outcomes of workplace stress on mental health of critical care professionals. As a result, resilience prevents the occurrence of burnout syndrome. Resilience improves not only their mental health, but also their ability to practice effectively. It is therefore imperative to develop resilience programs for critical care nurses in nursing schools, universities and health centres.

Mediating Role of Resilience in Relationship Between Attachment Style Dimensions and Quality of Life in High School Students

Background: One of the most fundamental constructs in the positive psychology is the quality of life. Quality of life refers to the emotional, social and physical health of individuals and their ability to do daily activities. Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of resilience in relationship between attachment styles and quality of life. Materials and Methods: The population of the study consisted of all male and female high school students in Babolsar, Iran, in the academic year 2014 - 2015. Participants included 367 high school students (226 females and 141 males) from Babolsar city, Iran, selected by multi-stage cluster sampling method. Participants completed attachment styles, quality of life and resilience scales. The research conceptual model was analyzed and assessed using simultaneous sequential regression method and the steps proposed by Baron and Kenny (1986). All analyses were performed by SPSS ver. 22 software. Results: The obtained results showed that: 1) the secure attachment style was a positive predictor of resilience (P < 0.01) and quality of life (P < 0.01); 2) the insecure attachment avoidant style was a negative predictor of resilience (P < 0.01) and the insecure attachment ambivalent style was a negative predictor of resilience (P < 0.01) and quality of life (P < 0.01); 3) the resilience was a positive predictor of quality of life (P < 0.01); 4) the resilience played the role of a partial mediator between insecure attachment ambivalent style and quality of life; 5) the resilience was a complete mediator between secure attachment style and quality of life. Conclusions: This finding confirms the resiliency theory indicating that secure families bring up children resiliently and increase the quality of their lives.

Mediator effect of resilience between burnout and health in nursing staff

To determine the relationships between 3 burnout dimensions (Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, and Reduced Personal Accomplishment), health (physical and mental health), and resilience, as well as to analyse the mediator role of resilience in relationships between burnout and health in a sample of Nursing staff. A correlational and cross-sectional study with probabilistic sampling was conducted on a sample of 194 Nursing staff of University Hospital of Fuenlabrada (Madrid), and composed of nurses (n=133) and nursing assistants (n=61). MBI-HSS (burnout syndrome), SF-12v1 (physical and mental components of health), 10-Item CD-RISC (resilience), and sociodemographic variables. Correlational analyses showed that mental health was negatively related with 3 burnout dimensions and positively with resilience. Furthermore, physical health was only negatively related with Emotional Exhaustion, and positively with resilience. Mediational analyses revealed that resilience mediated, on one hand, the relationship between Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization with mental health (partial mediation) and, on the other hand, the relationship between Reduced Personal Accomplishment and mental health (total mediation). Resilience is not only important to improve the mental health of Nursing staff, but also to buffer and minimize the negative consequences of the occupational stress to which they are at risk, with its most adverse result being signs of burnout. Therefore, resilience training should be promoted to improve nursing clinical practice.
