The study aimed to examine the indirect factors underlying the association between work-family conflict and posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) in college teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Three potential indirect factors were examined: perceived stress, basic psychological needs, and rumination. A total of 274 college teachers were recruited. All participants completed an electronic questionnaire that assessed their exposure to the pandemic, work-family conflict, perceived stress, basic psychological needs, rumination, and PTSS. The results showed that after controlling for pandemic exposure, gender, and age, work-family conflict was associated with PTSS via perceived stress alone, rumination alone, a path from perceived stress to basic psychological needs, and a path from perceived stress to rumination. These results indicate that work-family conflict is positively associated with PTSS indirectly via perceived stress, rumination, and basic psychological needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. These three mediators may completely explain the relation of work-family conflict to PTSS.
本研究旨在探讨 COVID-19 大流行期间高校教师工作家庭冲突与创伤后应激症状（PTSS）之间关联的间接因素。共考察了三个潜在的间接因素：感知压力、基本心理需求和反刍思维。共招募了 274 名高校教师。所有参与者都完成了一份电子问卷，评估了他们对大流行的暴露、工作家庭冲突、感知压力、基本心理需求、反刍思维和创伤后应激症状。结果表明，在控制大流行暴露、性别和年龄后，工作家庭冲突仅通过感知压力、反刍思维、感知压力到基本心理需求的路径以及感知压力到反刍思维的路径与创伤后应激症状相关。这些结果表明，在 COVID-19 大流行期间，工作家庭冲突与创伤后应激症状呈正相关，这一关系可通过感知压力、反刍思维和基本心理需求间接解释。这三个中介因素可能完全解释了工作家庭冲突与创伤后应激症状的关系。
