Previous research suggests that psychological and behavioural factors such as worry, severity, controllability, and preventive behaviours are associated with mental health and well-being. Less is known about simultaneous effects of those factors in predicting mental health and well-being. This study aimed to present the prevalence of mental health problems and identify the predictors of mental health and subjective well-being of healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants included 245 healthcare workers ( = 33.16 ± 7.33; 50.61% females) from a pandemic hospital in Turkey. Healthcare workers reported mild/severe depression, anxiety, and stress. Females tended to be more vulnerable to developing psychiatric symptoms. Worry, severity, and controllability significantly predicted depression, anxiety, stress, and subjective well-being while preventive behaviours only predicted subjective well-being. These findings suggest the importance of assessing healthcare workers' experiences of mental health and subjective well-being and their associated factors to assist mental health providers tailor assessments and treatment during a pandemic.
先前的研究表明，诸如担忧、严重程度、可控性和预防行为等心理和行为因素与心理健康及幸福感相关。对于这些因素在预测心理健康和幸福感方面的同时作用，人们了解较少。本研究旨在呈现心理健康问题的患病率，并确定在新冠疫情期间医护人员心理健康和主观幸福感的预测因素。参与者包括来自土耳其一家疫情医院的245名医护人员（平均年龄=33.16±7.33岁；50.61%为女性）。医护人员报告了轻度/重度抑郁、焦虑和压力情况。女性往往更容易出现精神症状。担忧、严重程度和可控性显著预测了抑郁、焦虑、压力和主观幸福感，而预防行为仅预测了主观幸福感。这些发现表明，评估医护人员的心理健康和主观幸福感体验及其相关因素，对于帮助心理健康服务提供者在疫情期间进行评估和治疗具有重要意义。
