Abstract Background. During the COVID-19 pandemic, college students were required to stay at home and maintain social distancing the entire spring semester of 2020. There is little research on how family function influenced mental health problems and how coping styles moderated the relationship between family function and mental health problems among college students during their stay-at-home period.Methods. We carried out four evaluations between February and October 2020 through an online survey. A total of 13,462 college students (age = 16--29 years) participated. Family function, coping styles, depression symptoms, and anxiety symptoms were studied. To evaluate the associations between variables, a generalized estimating equation was used. Results. Findings indicate that the incidence rates of depression rose during stay-at-home period from 33.87% to 40.08% after schools reopened. The incidence rates of anxiety rose from 17.45% to 26.53% through the entire period. The two-way interaction of time × family function for depression and anxiety were significant (χ2 = 52.97, p < 0.001 and χ2 = 51.25, p < 0.001, respectively). The three-way interaction of time × family function × coping style were also significant for depression and anxiety (χ2 = 862.09, p < 0.001 and χ2 = 583.29, p < 0.001, respectively) Conclusions. These findings shed light on how family function intersected with coping styles to influence the mental health problems of college students during and after the stay-at-home period of COVID-19.

We examined the influence of college students' coping styles on perceived self-efficacy, through the mediating effect of general self-efficacy, in managing inferiority. A sample of 206 college students completed a Coping Style Questionnaire, the Regulatory Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale of Chinese college students, and a general self-efficacy scale. The results showed the following: (a) there were significant correlations among the problem solving, self-blame, and fantasy coping styles, and general self-efficacy and perceived self-efficacy in managing inferiority; (b) the problem solving and self-blame coping styles indirectly predicted perceived self-efficacy in managing inferiority by general self-efficacy, and general self-efficacy played a partial mediating role between the problem solving and self-blame coping styles and perceived self-efficacy in managing inferiority; and (c) gender played a moderating role between coping style and perceived self-efficacy in managing inferiority. The results are important for counseling to enhance regulatory emotional self-efficacy.

We explored the relationships among loneliness, coping style, and adjustment to college from high school. Participants were a sample of 276 college freshmen from a university in China. The measures we used were the Emotional and Social Loneliness Scale, the Coping Style Scale for College Students, and the Academic Adjustment Scale for College Students. We found that loneliness had a direct negative effect on adjustment, and also negatively affected adjustment by activating a negative coping style and suppressing a positive coping style. Both forms of coping style played a mediating role in the relationship between loneliness and adjustment to college. Our findings add to the extant literature on the relationships among loneliness, coping styles, and academic adjustment in China, and have implications for addressing Chinese freshmen's adjustment to college life from a new perspective.

This study investigated the relationship between stress, spiritual coping, and bulimic symptoms in college students (N = 605). Participants who felt punished by God/Higher Power during difficult times reported more symptoms. This spiritual coping strategy also partly mediated the link between stress and bulimic symptoms; the link was partly explained by a coping style that involved beliefs about punishment by God/Higher Power. These findings have implications for mental health counseling in terms of addressing spiritual coping strategies with clients who identify as having faith beliefs and who struggle with bulimic symptoms.

BACKGROUND: For family caregivers, sudden stroke events and heavy caring works are stressful events. At present, controversies about the factors affecting caregivers’ stress response and their correlation with coping styles still exist. OBJECTIVE: To explore the influencing factors and coping styles of mental health stress responses of stroke caregivers and promote caregivers to adopt positive coping styles for diseases and caring works. METHODS: The convenience sampling method is used to select stroke caregivers as the research objects. The general information questionnaires, Relative Stress Scale (RSS), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), Social Support Rate Scale (SSRS), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) are utilized for investigation. RESULTS: 205 valid questionnaires are returned. Analysis suggests that the influential factors of mental health stress responses of stroke caregivers include the course of the disease, the impact of the disease on economic conditions, obligation to take care of other family members, understanding of stroke-associated diseases, and whether the patient is at risk. Social support and self-efficacy are negatively correlated with stress responses, while negative coping style is significantly positively correlated with stress responses. CONCLUSIONS: By increasing social support and self-efficacy, medical workers can guide stroke caregivers to take positive coping styles, thereby reducing their mental health stress responses.

Abstract [Purpose]: To understand the mental health level (HAMA) and trait coping style (TCSQ) of the Chinese aid Guyana medical team members (CAGMTM) under the new coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic, in order to take effective measures to improve the CAGMTM Mental health provides a theoretical basis. [Method]: From October 2020 to March 2021, the team members have worked and lived in Guyana for 6 months. The mental health level (Hamilton Anxiety Scale, HAMA) and trait coping styles were investigated for 16 team members who aided Guyana. [Results]: The HAMA score of the CAGMTM was (14.75±5.12); 14 doctors had a score of (15.57+6.01); 2 chefs had a score of (17.5+7.78). The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that among the CAGMTM. Whether there are team members in isolation (t=3.383, p<0.05), and whether any medical staff in the hospital where the CAGMTM are located have tested positive for COVID-19 (t=-2.831, p<0.05) are important factors affecting the mental health of the team members during the epidemic. factor. The score of active coping in the coping style is (29.38±6.28) points, which is lower than the Chinese conventional model (t=-0.392, p<0.05); the negative coping score is (30.37±5.05) points, which is higher than the Chinese conventional model (t=4.908) , p<0.05); the HAMA score of the CAGMTM in the COVID-19 epidemic was negatively correlated with the positive response in TCSQ (r=-0.654, p<0.05); the HAMA score was positively correlated with the negative response in TCSQ (r=0.654) ,p<0.05). [Conclusion]: The mental health level of the CAGMTM under the COVID-19 epidemic is closely related to their idiosyncratic coping styles. For foreign aid medical team members working in countries with severe epidemics, attention should be paid to the mental health of foreign aid medical team members, timely intervention should be given, and psychological counseling should be carried out regularly, so that the aid team members can work and live better.

The objective of this research was to assess the effect of spirituality and self-efficacy in the mental health of caregivers of patients with neurodegenerative disorders. Four styles of spiritual coping were examined to identify which of them can function as protective or risk factors for caregivers of patients with neurodegenerative disorders. Interviews were conducted face-to-face to 116 caregivers of patients diagnosed with some type of neurodegenerative disorder. The results showed that caregivers with a selfless spiritual coping style exhibit significantly higher depression, stress, and perceived overload than those with a collaborative style. No statistically significant differences were found between the means of the other styles of spiritual coping. Simultaneously, it was found that the selfless spiritual coping style is a risk factor for overload, depression, and stress. The study is a first step in understanding how spirituality interacts with self-efficacy to protect the mental health of caregivers of dementia patients in Puerto Rico. Our results theoretically and empirically support the functional compatibility of both psychological resources.

BackgroundPsychological resilience may reduce the impact of psychological distress to some extent. We aimed to investigate the mental health status of the public during the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and explore the level and related factors of anxiety and depression.MethodsFrom February 8 to March 9, 2020, 3,180 public completed the Zung’s Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) for anxiety, Zung’s Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) for depression, the Connor–Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC) for psychological resilience, and the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) for the attitudes and coping styles.ResultsThe number of people with depressive symptoms (SDS &gt; 53) was 1,303 (the rate was 41.0%). The number of people with anxiety symptoms (SAS &gt; 50) was 1,184 (the rate was 37.2%). The depressed group and anxiety group had less education, more unmarried and younger age, as well as had significant different in SDS total score (P &lt; 0.001), SAS total score (P &lt; 0.001), CD-RISC total score (P &lt; 0.001), and SCSQ score (P &lt; 0.001). The binary logistic regression showed that female (B = -0.261, P = 0.026), strength (B = -0.079, P = 0.000), and the subscales of active coping style in SCSQ (B = -0.983, P = 0.000) remained protective factors and passive coping style (B = 0.293, P = 0.003) and higher SAS score (B = 0.175, P = 0.000) were risk factors for depression. Optimism (B = -0.041, P = 0.015) in CD-RISC was a protective factor, and passive coping styles (B = 0.483, P = 0.000) and higher SDS score (B = 0.134, P = 0.000) were risk factors for anxiety.LimitationsThis study adopted a cross-sectional design and used self-report questionnaires.ConclusionThe mental health of the public, especially females, the younger and less educational populations, and unmarried individuals, should be given more attention. Individuals with high level of mental resilience and active coping styles would have lower levels of anxiety and depression during the outbreak of COVID-19.
