This study investigates associations between resilience factors (optimism and positive affect) and self-rated health during the COVID-19 pandemic. Longitudinal data were collected ( = 292) across five assessments. Multilevel modeling tested main effects of the resilience factors and how they interacted with stress to predict health. Greater optimism and positive affect were prospectively associated with fewer depressive symptoms (s < 0.01) and a lower burden of physical health symptoms (s <0.01). Positive affect interacted with stress to predict depressive symptoms ( < 0.05), suggesting a stress buffering effect. These findings suggest that resilience factors may improve health during COVID-19.
本研究调查了新冠疫情期间心理韧性因素（乐观和积极情绪）与自评健康之间的关联。通过五次评估收集了纵向数据（n = 292）。多水平模型检验了心理韧性因素的主效应以及它们如何与压力相互作用来预测健康状况。更高的乐观和积极情绪与更少的抑郁症状（p < 0.01）和更低的身体健康症状负担（p < 0.01）呈前瞻性关联。积极情绪与压力相互作用以预测抑郁症状（p < 0.05），表明存在压力缓冲效应。这些发现表明，心理韧性因素可能改善新冠疫情期间的健康状况。
