The virus known as Covid-19 caused a global pandemic in 2019 and was found to have a devastating impact on mental well-being. Individuals around the world had difficulty retaining positive emotions such as gratitude, mindfulness, and hope in the face of this disaster. These feelings diminished their sense of mental well-being. This study examined the mediational model of gratitude, mindfulness, and hope as parallel mediators of the relationship between Covid-19 stress and mental well-being. In total, 289 adults from the general population completed the scales of Covid stress, gratitude, mindfulness, hope, and mental well-being. Results indicated that Covid-19 stress was related to mental well-being, with mindfulness and hope acting as mediators. Gratitude, on the other hand, did not mediate the relationship. The study provides evidence that targeting gratitude, mindfulness, and hope may have a meaningful effect on Covid-19 stress as a related symptom and potentially have a negative impact on mental well-being during the pandemic.
被称为新冠病毒-19的病毒在2019年引发了全球大流行,并被发现对心理健康产生了毁灭性影响。面对这场灾难,世界各地的人们难以保持感恩、正念和希望等积极情绪。这些情绪削弱了他们的心理健康感。本研究考察了感恩、正念和希望作为新冠病毒-19压力与心理健康之间关系的平行中介的中介模型。共有289名来自普通人群的成年人完成了新冠病毒压力、感恩、正念、希望和心理健康量表。结果表明,新冠病毒-19压力与心理健康相关,正念和希望起到了中介作用。另一方面,感恩并未介导这种关系。该研究提供了证据,表明针对感恩、正念和希望可能对作为相关症状的新冠病毒-19压力产生有意义的影响,并可能在大流行期间对心理健康产生负面影响。
