There are many reports in the literature on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health, including the condition of women. Most of these studies refer to a single time point, while there is a lack of studies controlling for selected parameters during different periods of the pandemic. This work aimed to determine the role of ego-resiliency in women's adaptation to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The survey was conducted in two stages - all via online forms. A total of 762 Polish women took part in the overall project. The scales used in the study were the Ego-resiliency scale (ER89-R12), Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 Scale (GAD-7), Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), and Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ). Statistical analysis was performed using Statistica 13.3.
Women participating in the second study had significantly lower scores on ego-resilience and its components compared to the first study. In the first research, ego-resiliency and optimal regulation were statistically significantly correlated with anxiety, alcohol consumption, generalised aggression, verbal aggression and hostility, while openness to life experiences was correlated with alcohol consumption and hostility. The second part of the project highlighted new significant correlations between ego-resiliency and optimal regulation and physical aggression and anger, but a non-significant correlation of these variables with alcohol consumption. The effect of openness to life experiences on alcohol consumption and anxiety, evident in the first study, was no longer present in the second part of the study.
The lack of a significant effect of openness to life experience on alcohol consumption, lower ego-resiliency and optimal regulation scores are observed in the second part of the research, which might be an expression of adaptation to the COVID-19 pandemic. Ego-resiliency is a protective factor against aggression, while optimal regulation against anxiety among Polish women.
文献中有许多关于新冠疫情对心理健康影响的报道，包括对女性状况的影响。这些研究大多只涉及单个时间点，而缺乏在疫情不同阶段对选定参数进行控制的研究。本研究旨在确定自我复原力在女性适应新冠疫情中的作用。
调查分两个阶段进行——均通过在线表格。共有762名波兰女性参与了整个项目。研究中使用的量表有自我复原力量表（ER89 - R12）、广泛性焦虑障碍7项量表（GAD - 7）、酒精使用障碍识别测试（AUDIT）以及布斯 - 佩里攻击性问卷（BPAQ）。使用Statistica 13.3进行统计分析。
与第一项研究相比，参与第二项研究的女性在自我复原力及其各组成部分上的得分显著更低。在第一项研究中，自我复原力和最佳调节与焦虑、饮酒、一般攻击性、言语攻击性和敌意呈显著统计学相关性，而对生活经历的开放性与饮酒和敌意相关。项目的第二部分突出了自我复原力和最佳调节与身体攻击性和愤怒之间新的显著相关性，但这些变量与饮酒无显著相关性。在第一项研究中明显的对生活经历的开放性对饮酒和焦虑的影响，在研究的第二部分不再存在。
在研究的第二部分观察到对生活经历的开放性对饮酒没有显著影响、自我复原力和最佳调节得分较低，这可能是适应新冠疫情的一种表现。自我复原力是抵御攻击性的保护因素，而最佳调节是波兰女性抵御焦虑的保护因素。
