To examine the well-being of medical staff during the COVID-19 pandemic, we conducted a survey of 705 medical staff who were involved in anti-epidemic work in China from 20 February to 16 March 2020. The findings of the present study showed a "psychological typhoon eye" effect in which the medical staff in areas with a high contagion rate showed a significantly lower level of death anxiety than those in low-contagion regions. We also found a significant negative relationship between death anxiety and hedonic well-being, but there was no relationship between death anxiety and eudaimonic well-being. Moreover, the results revealed that a narcissistic personality moderates the relationships between death anxiety and the two types of well-being. For those who had higher narcissistic personality scores, death anxiety had no negative effect on their well-being. The findings of the present study can help us to better understand the life profiles of medical staff and can also provide some practical implications for understanding the life conditions of medical staff when facing a great health crisis.
为了考察新冠疫情期间医护人员的福祉，我们对 2020 年 2 月 20 日至 3 月 16 日期间在中国参与抗疫工作的 705 名医护人员进行了调查。本研究的结果显示出一种“心理台风眼”效应，即高感染率地区的医护人员的死亡焦虑水平明显低于低感染率地区。我们还发现，死亡焦虑与享乐幸福感呈显著负相关，但与幸福论幸福感无关。此外，结果表明，自恋人格特质调节了死亡焦虑与两种幸福感之间的关系。对于那些具有较高自恋人格得分的人来说，死亡焦虑对他们的幸福感没有负面影响。本研究的结果可以帮助我们更好地了解医护人员的生活概况，也可以为理解医护人员在面临重大健康危机时的生活状况提供一些实际启示。
