Secondary Stressors

Pandemi COVID-19 menciptakan gangguan pada beberapa aspek kehidupan manusia sehingga dapat menjadi sumber stres (Stresor). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi stresor dan strategi penanggulangan stres individu selama 3 bulan awal pandemi COVID-19, yaitu bulan Maret – Mei 2020. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini merupakan 3 orang dewasa awal yang berpartisipasi dalam wawancara semi-terstruktur secara online. Analisis tematik digunakan untuk mengolah hasil data wawancara. Berdasarkan hasil dari penelitian ini, ditemukan 2 jenis stresor yang dirasakan selama pandemi COVID-19, yaitu stresor primer yang berkaitan secara langsung dengan COVID-19 dan stresor sekunder, yaitu stresor terkait aktivitas dan kehidupan sosial individu. Dalam mengatasi stres, strategi yang dikatakan sudah efektif dalam mengatasi stres yang dirasakan adalah dengan mencari social support, melakukan aktivitas yang bermanfaat, melakukan protokol kesehatan, dan memilah informasi terkait COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic creates disruption in several aspects of human life so that it can become source of stress (stressors). This study aims to identify stressors and individual coping strategies during the first 3 months (March – May 2020) of the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants in this study were 3 early adults who participated in online interviews. Thematic analysis is used to process the results of the interview. Based on the results of this study, 2 types of stressors were found: primary stressors that are directly related to COVID-19 and secondary stressors related to individual activities and social life.

The Subject

Resilience was a dynamic process that adapts positively to the difficulties it has. This term was often used by researchers in cancer patients. Controversy often occurs in its conception and little is known by patients in the use of the term resilience in their lives. The subject of this paper was cancer patients. The literature review was conducted by examining qualitative studies that discuss the use of terms in cancer patients and the use of themes used in terms of resilience. A systematic review of reviews through SCOPUS, MEDLINE, Psyc INFO and CINAHL reviewed from 2000 to 2017. Thematic analysis was used to encode themes in the studio and produce analytical themes, and resolution resolutions in the studio. After being invited to 573 citations, there were only 32 suitable studies. Four categories emerged, including coping strategies, social support, spirituality, and growth. The conclusion is no use of the term resilience in cancer patients, but cancer patients more often use other terms with the same meaning as resilience. Cancer patients rarely use the term direct resilience, but more often use terms such as coping strategies, social support, growth, and spiritual as terms related to resilience.

Abstract Background The challenge of COVID-19 and the restrictions that were imposed in Nigeria had a direct effect on social life. Older persons were disproportionately affected because of the existing social vulnerabilities, socio-economic dependency, and high risk of COVID-19 in the population. Older persons require essential dimensions of social support, but these were significantly limited due to the COVID-19 restrictions. To this end, the study interrogated the coping strategies of older persons. Specifically, the study drew narratives to identify the processes for coping with the mental health challenges associated with being severed from established routines and sources of social support. The study adopted an exploratory research design using qualitative methods. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, in-depth telephone interviews were conducted among twenty-seven (27) older persons in Ibadan, Nigeria. Through a system of content analysis, using Atlas ti 8.4, textual data was analyzed and validated. ResultsThree major themes emerged to describe the coping behaviors, which were embedded in the problem-focused coping strategies of older persons. Older persons explored spirituality, engaged their social networks through telephones, and gave more attention to a healthy diet and physical exercises mainly indoors to improve their general wellness and mental health. The nuances of the coping behaviors reflect the mental health needs – fear, anxiety, and depression, among older persons during the restrictions. ConclusionsTherefore, health promotion by the social support structure and government is valuable for improving the mental health outcomes of older persons in a pandemic.

On the basis of the archetypic analysis of development trends of a conflictological paradigm the author’s model of minimization of conflict potential in modern society is offered. Institutional construction is the basis for model that is harmonized with a factor of societal identity.It is noted that the problems of social conflicts, according to data from monitor- ing studies of the Ukrainian school of archetype, are increasingly shifted into the sphere of interpersonal relations. It is stimulated by the progression in society of so-called self-sufficient personalities, the “subjectification” of the social space, and at the same time narrowing down to the solution of entirely specific situations in which there is a collision of the interests of two or more parties.Instead, in order to find the optimal solution for resolving the conflict, it is necessary to have interdisciplinary knowledge, in particular understanding of the deep nature of such conflicts. Collision of points of view, thoughts, positions — a very frequent phenomenon of modern social life. In order to develop the correct line of behavior in various conflict situations, it is important to adequately under- stand the nature of the emergence of the modern conflict and the mechanisms for resolving them in substance. Knowledge of conflict nature enriches the culture of communication and makes human life and social groups not only more calm, but also creates conditions for constructive development. It is proved that in modern life one can not but agree with the statement that an individual carries first re- sponsibility for his own life and only then for the life of the social groups to which he belongs. And while making decisions within the framework of modern mecha- nisms (consensus), the properties of human psychology such as extroversion, emo- tionality, irrationality, intuition, externality, and executive ability will not at least contribute to such a task.That is why in the author’s research attracted attention to the archetypal na- ture of the conflict — the primitive images, ideas, feelings inherent in man as a bearer of the collective unconscious.

BACKGROUND It is necessary to cope with situations in daily life to prevent stress-related health consequences. However, coping strategies might differ in their impact on dealing with stressful situations in daily life. Moreover, the effect of coping strategies on situational coping might differ between women and men. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of coping strategies on situational coping in everyday life situations and to investigate gender differences. METHODS An ecological momentary assessment study with the mobile health app TrackYourStress (TYS) was conducted with 113 participants. Coping strategies were measured at baseline with the coping scales Positive Thinking, Active Stress Coping, Social Support, Support in Faith, and Alcohol and Cigarette Consumption of the Stress and Coping Inventory (SCI). Situational coping was assessed by the question “How well can you cope with your momentary stress-level” (slider 0-100) in daily life over four weeks. Multilevel models were conducted to test the effects of the coping strategies on situational coping. Additionally, gender differences were evaluated. RESULTS Positive Thinking (P=.03) and Active Stress Coping (P=.04) had significant positive impacts on situational coping in the total sample. For women, only Social Support had a significant positive effect on situational coping (P=.046). For men, only Active Stress Coping had a significant positive effect on situational coping (P=.001). Women had higher scores on the SCI scale Social Support than men (P=.007). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that different coping strategies could be more effective in daily life for women than for men, which should be considered in the development of interventions aimed at reducing stress consequences through coping. Interventions taking gender into consideration might lead to better coping-outcomes than generalized interventions.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the quality of life among people living with HIV/AIDS based on the criteria for diagnosis and other factors.Methods: This study was conducted in the VCT clinic hospital of Dr. Moewardi. The population was HIV-positive patients with antiretroviral therapy. Data collection conducted through medical records and interview to patients. Results: Out of a total of 89 respondents, 66.29% were males and 71.91% were aged between 26-45 years. We found significant correlations for diagnosis of HIV/AIDS, opportunistic infections, time since HIV diagnosis, duration of ARV therapy, social support, modes of transport, sex, age, and marital status with the quality of life. Multivariate analysis obtained by each variable showed the strongest association with the quality of life was time since diagnosis, social support and duration of ARV therapy. Conclusion: The quality of life was better for those who have been diagnosed with HIV/AIDS ≥ 32 months, with social support, and who have been undergoing antiretroviral therapy ≥ 29 months. Improved counseling in the early days of ARV therapy is necessary to always maintain the treatment and provide support for their social life.

In response to students’ food insecurity, a number of colleges and universities have taken action and established campus food pantries as part of their intervention plans. However, many of these pantries ceased operation due to COVID-19 campus shutdowns. The purpose of this study is to illustrate the short-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on postsecondary students, who use a university-provided food pantry. Drawing from semi-structured interviews with 12 participants, the thematic analysis explored the initial coping strategies these students used to endure the pandemic. Findings revealed that many students experienced the immediate effects of the pandemic in the form of income loss, self-isolation, anxiety, and appetite change. Although the pandemic interrupted these students’ journeys to continue their studies and become independent in various ways, the affected students implemented various coping strategies, including seeking help from family or friends, using available resources, cooking at home, and even trying to save money. However, considering that the targeted population in this study was already at risk because of their basic needs insecurity, these postsecondary students require extra attention from their higher education institutions in the case of emergencies, such as a global pandemic. In addition to its timely and relevant findings, this study provides important avenues for future research and intervention efforts.
