The study on psychological resilience of tinnitus and associated influencing factors

The association between tinnitus and psychological resilience is an underdeveloped area of research.This cross-sectional study investigated such associations and factors potentially affecting resilience in 61 patients.Demographic and psychometric data were collected by questionnaires.The ConnoreDavidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC),Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire(MCMQ),Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS),General Self-Efficacy Scale(GSES),Big Five Inventory(BFI)and Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS)were completed by participants.Data were analyzed using independent t-test and Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple linear regression modeling.The CD-RISC score was relatively low(66.97±15.71),negatively correlated with tinnitus(r=0.276,p<0.001)and associated with age(r=0.270,P<0.001).As protective factors,SWLS(r=0.486,p<0.001),GSES(r=0.555,p<0.001),PSSS(r=0.538,p<0.001)and extraversion were positively correlated with CD-RISC and BFI scores(r=0.287,p<0.001).We also detected a negative correlation with neuroticism(r=0.395,p<0.001),which is a known risk factor for worse CD-RISC scores.Identifying protective and risk factors for psychological resilience can be used to predict treatment outcomes in tinnitus patients,which will help devise personalized solutions and improve patients'quality of life.

Effects of College Students’ Perceived Stress on Anxiety in the Time of COVID-19: The Chain Mediation Role of Psychological Resilience and Regulatory Emotional Self-Efficacy

COVID-19 has changed the way of learning and life of college students.The purpose is to explore the relationship between perceived stress and anxiety,and the mediating effect of resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy in college students during COVID-19.309 students from three colleges were selected as research participants(average age 19.79±1.11 years).SPSS was used to measure the correlation between variables.Amos was used to test the path coefficient and mediating effect of the hypothetical model.The results show that:Firstly,perceived stress has a significantly and positively predictive effect on anxiety.Secondly,psychological resilience and regu-latory emotional self-efficacy independently played a significant and partially mediating effect between perceived stress and anxiety.Among them,perceived stress had a negative predictive effect on psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy.Psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy had a negative predictive effect on anxiety.Thirdly,psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy play a chain mediation role between psychological stress and anxiety.Regulatory emotional self-efficacy cannot only directly predict the level of anxiety,but also indirectly predict the level of anxiety by regulating psychological resilience.This study reveals the relationship between college students’perceived stress and anxiety,and the mediating effect of psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy in the new time of COVID-19.The chain mediation role of psychological resilience and regulatory emotional self-efficacy reminds college mental health educators that improving students’regulatory emotional self-efficacy is an important way to promote students’mental health.

The impact of acceptance of disability and psychological resilience on post-traumatic stress disorders in burn patients

Objective:To investigate the impact of acceptance of disability and psychological resilience on post-traumatic stress disorders(PTSD)in patients with burns.Methods:A total of 127 patients with burns were asked to complete PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version,Acceptance of Disability Scale and ConnoreDavidson Resilience Scale questionnaires.Results were evaluated using correlational and regression analyses.Results:The incidence of PTSD in burn patients was 37.80%(48/127),with an overall average checklist score of 45.78±15.29 points.PTSD was negatively correlated with the level of disability acceptance and psychological resilience(p<0.05).Multiple regression analysis showed that the depth of burn,marital status,degree of subordination,self-value and selfimprovement were factors influencing the incidence PTSD.Conclusion:Nurses should screen and identify patients with PTSD as early as possible and provide proper psychological interventions to help them accept the reality of disability and improve the level of psychological resilience。

Correlation between psychological resilience and burnout among female employees in a shopping mall in Xi Xian New Area,China:A cross-sectional survey

Objective:The objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between psychological resilience and burnout levels of female employees in a shopping mall.Materials and Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 213 female employees of a shopping mall in Xi Xian New District,Shaanxi Province,in October 2020,who were surveyed using general condition questionnaire,Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,and burnout scale.Results:The psychological resilience score of 213 female employees was 60.52±10.12 and the burnout score was 52.44±10.76.The differences were statistically significant in psychological resilience scores regarding female employees’different age(F=46.715,P=0.000),educational level(F=3.955,P=0.021),and whether they suffered from polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)(F=−11.660,P<0.01).The differences in burnout scores were statistically significant among female employees’different age(F=19.805,P<0.01),years of work(F=53.277,P<0.01),and whether they suffered from PCOS(F=16.119,P<0.01).There was a negative correlation between psychological resilience and burnout(r=−0.787,P<0.01).Conclusion:The psychological resilience score of female employees was generally low,and they suffered from a certain level of burnout.The mall managers should take corresponding measures for female employees to improve their psychological resilience level and reduce the degree of burnout.

Moderating effect of psychological resilience on the perceived social support and loneliness in the left-behind elderly in rural areas

Objective:To investigate the loneliness and psychological resilience with the perceived social support of the left-behind elderly in rural areas and explore the moderating effect of psychological resilience on the understanding of social support and loneliness of the left-behind elderly in rural areas.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted;272 left-behind elderly people in 6 rural villages in the Sichuan Province were investigated by using the General Situation Questionnaire,Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS),Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC),and the University of California at Los Angeles Loneliness Scale(UCLA)with a stratified random cluster sampling method.Results:The loneliness score of the left-behind elderly in rural areas was 52.54±7.25,the psychological resilience score was 78(68.87),and the perceived social support score was 57(51.62).The perceived social support and psychological resilience were negatively correlated with loneliness,while the perceived social support was positively correlated with psychological resilience.The moderating effect of psychological resilience on the perceived social support and loneliness of the left-behind elderly in rural areas was−0.102(P<0.001).Conclusions:Higher level resilience is of positive significance to alleviate the negative effect of social support on loneliness.Improving the resilience of the left-behind elderly in rural areas is a beneficial exploration to promote their mental health.

The relationship between physical exercise and subjective well-being in Chinese college students: the mediating role of psychological resilience and the moderating role of peer influence

Objective:To explore the influence of physical exercise,psychological resilience,and peer influence on subjective well-being,and then build a model of moderated mediation.Methods:Physical Activity Rating,Connor Davision Resilience Scale,Peer Influence Scale,and Index of Well-Being were used.This paper investigated 790 undergraduates.Results:(1)Physical exercise has a significant positive predictive effect on subjective well-being(β=0.43,P<0.001);(2)Psychological resilience plays a part in mediating the relationship between physical exercise and subjective well-being.The mediating effect value is 0.18;(3)The relationship between physical exercise and psychological resilience moderated by the peer influence.Compared with the low peer influence(β simple=0.01,t=0.06,P>0.05),physical exercise has a stronger positive predictive effect on psychological resilience in college students with high peer influence(β simple=0.87,t=2.07,P<0.05).Conclusion:Physical exercise affects college students'subjective well-being through psychological resilience,and peer influence moderates the mediating effect of psychological resilience.

Analysis of sleep quality,disease uncertainty,and psychological tolerance in patients undergoing chemotherapy for digestive tract malignancies

BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among digestive tract malignancies,following gastric cancer.Sleep is of great significance for maintaining human health.The incidence of sleep disorders in patients with cancer is approximately twice that observed in the general population.Lack of sleep can prolong hospital stays,increase the likelihood of infection,and increase mortality rates.Therefore,studying the factors related to sleep quality is significant for improving the quality of life of patients with malignant tumors of the digestive tract.AIM To investigate the relationships among sleep quality,disease uncertainty,and psychological resilience in patients undergoing chemotherapy for digestive tract malignancies.METHODS A total of 131 patients with malignant digestive tract tumors who were treated at Hefei BOE Hospital between April 2021 and September 2022 were selected as research participants.Based on their Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)scores,participants were divided into either the sleep disorder group(PSQI score>7)or the normal sleep group(PSQI score≤7).The clinical data—together with the Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale for Adults(MUIS-A)and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC)scores—were compared.RESULTS In this study,78(59.54%)patients with digestive tract malignancies developed sleep disorders after chemotherapy.Sleep disorder incidence was higher in patients with colorectal cancer than in those with gastric and esophageal cancers(P<0.05).The total MUIS-A score and those for each item in the sleep disorder group were higher than those in the normal sleep group.The total CD-RISC score and those for each item in the sleep disorder group were lower than those in the normal sleep group(P<0.05).The PSQI scores of patients with malignant digestive tract tumors were positively correlated with the scores for lack of disease information,disease uncertainty,and unpredictability in the MUIS-A and negatively correlated with the scores for tenacity,self-improvement,and optimism in the CD-RISC(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Patients undergoing chemotherapy for digestive tract malignancies are prone to sleep problems related to disease uncertainty and psychological resilience.Therefore,interventions can be implemented to improve their sleep quality.

Investigation on Psychological Health and Resilience of Clinical Nursing Students in “Post-Pandemic Era”

The study aims to learn about the psychological health and counseling situation of nursing students in the post-pandemic era through investigation on the psychological health, resilience and counseling demand of nursing students by randomly selecting clinical nursing students interned in a Grade III Level A hospital in Guangzhou from June 2020 to January 2021 as the objects of study. The internship can be divided into three stages: initial (1st - 3rd month), middle (4th - 7th month) and final (8th - 12th month). The investigator educated the nursing students about psychological health in the initial stage to improve their adaptability to clinical practice. Then they were given questionnaires including Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and general questionnaires. And this study further completed difference analysis on psychological health and resilience in gender, educational background, internship stages and non-only/only children. It turned out that all factors scored above the national norm except anxiety in nine symptom clusters and three dimensions of CD-RISC. As for the scores of four factors of somatization, interpersonal relationship, hostility and bigotry and three dimensions of tenacity, optimism and strength in the CD-RISC, the difference was considered to indicate statistical significance (P < 0.001). Among factors affecting the psychological health of clinical nursing students, score differences involving somatization and compulsion (P < 0.001, P < 0.05) under different educational backgrounds showed statistically significant. With regard to different clinical stages, there were significant differences in somatization, compulsion, tenacity and strength (P < 0.001, P < 0.05). Finally, the conclusion is drawn that, during the period of pandemic prevention and control, the overall psychological status of clinical nursing students was good, but there remain part of cases with mild psychological problems that cannot be ignored. In the post-pandemic era, it is necessary to strengthen the awareness of teaching groups of clinical hospitals to psychological counseling for nursing students.

Psychological review of hemodialysis patients and kidney transplant recipients during the COVID-19 pandemic

BACKGROUND Kidney transplantation(KT)and end-stage renal disease(ESRD)requiring hemodialysis(HD)increase the incidence of morbidity and mortality associated with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)infection.The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the psychological well-being of COVID-19 patients,especially those with a high-risk of infectious complications.The prevalence of anxiety and depression is known to be higher in ESRD patients undergoing HD than in the general population.On the other hand,KT recipients have different treatment requirements compared to HD patients,including adherence to complex immunosuppressive regimens and compliance with follow-up appointments.We hypothesized that psychosocial difficulties and stressors would differ between ESRD patients undergoing HD and KT recipients during the COVID-19 pandemic.If so,each group may require different interventions to maintain their psychosocial well-being.AIM To measure and compare the levels of stress,anxiety,depression,concerns related to the pandemic,and coping skills in ESRD patients undergoing HD and KT recipients during the COVID-19 pandemic.METHODS This cross-sectional study was performed at a training and research hospital.The study included ESRD patients undergoing HD(HD group)and KT recipients(with stable graft function for≥6 mo prior to the study)(KT group).Patients completed a demographics form,the impact of events scale,the hospital anxiety and depression scale,and the Connor-Davidson resilience scale.Laboratory findings at the last clinical follow-up were recorded.Theχ^(2)test was used to assess the relationship between the HD and KT groups and the categorical variables.The relationships between the scale scores were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation test,and differences between the groups were analyzed using the independent groups t-test.RESULTS The study included 125 patients,of which 89(71.2%)were in the HD group and 36(28.8%)were in the KT group.The levels of anxiety and depression were higher in the HD group than in the KT group[9.36±4.38 vs 6.89±4.06(P=0.004)and 8.78±4.05 vs 6.42±4.26(P=0.004),respectively],whereas the post-traumatic stress score was higher in the KT group[46.75±13.98 vs 37.66±18.50(P=0.009)].The concern with the highest intensity in the HD group was transmission of COVID-19 to family and friends(93.3%)and in the KT group was loss of caregiver and social support(77.8%).Concerns regarding financial hardship,stigmatization,loneliness,limited access to health care services,failure to find medical supplies,and transmission of COVID-19 to family and friends were more prevalent in the HD group.Connor-Davidson resilience scale tenacity and personal competence,tolerance,and negative affect scores were higher in the KT group than in the HD group[43.47±11.39 vs 33.72±12.58,15.58±4.95 vs 11.45±5.05,and 68.75±17.39 vs 55.39±18.65(P<0.001),respectively].Biochemical parameters,such as creatine,urea,phosphorus,parathyroid hormone,and calcium,were lower,and the albumin and hemoglobin values were higher in the KT group than in the HD group(P<0.001).CONCLUSION Psychosocial difficulties and the level of stress differ in ESRD patients undergoing HD and KT recipients;therefore,psychosocial interventions should be tailored for each patient group.

Influence of resilience on depression among nurses in clean operating departments:The mediating effect of life satisfaction

BACKGROUND A clean operating room is an important part of surgical and critical treatment in hospitals.The workload is substantial,the pace is rapid,and the working environment is intense;therefore,nurses who work in clean operating rooms are constantly challenged,which can lead to anxiety,depression,and other mental health issues.Life satisfaction and resilience are important factors that ensure mental health.Therefore,exploring the mediating role of life satisfaction in the influence of resilience on depression among nurses in clean operating rooms can help improve nursing services and teamwork.AIM To explore the mediating effect of satisfaction on the influence of resilience on depression among nurses in a clean operating department.METHODS From April to November 2022,196 nurses from the Department of Clean Operating at Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital participated in this study.Participants were selected using convenience sampling.Participants’gender,age,marital status,position,length of service,personal monthly income,daily working hours,employment status,and professional title were collected,and the Connor-Davidson resilience scale,satisfaction with life scale,and selfrating depression scale were used to evaluate resilience,life satisfaction,and depression.The researchers conducted professional training in advance,introduced the research methods to the participants before the investigation,and explained the study’s significance and purpose.Surveys were distributed and collected on-site.Each questionnaire took 30 min to complete.RESULTS The average scores for life satisfaction,resilience,and depression were 3.13(±0.28),4.09(±0.78),and 56.21(±8.70),respectively.The correlation between resilience and depression was negative(r=-0.829,P<0.01).Life satisfaction was positively related to resilience(r=0.855,P<0.01)and negatively related to depression(r=-0.778,P<0.01).The relationship between resilience and depression was partially mediated by life satisfaction.The value of the mediating effect was-6.853(26.68%of the total effect).CONCLUSION Life satisfaction partially mediates the link between resilience and depression among nurses in clean operating departments.

Analysis of Status and Influencing Factors of Psychology Resilience Level in Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy

Objective:To analyse the status and discuss influencing factors of the psychology resilience level of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy,and to provide evidence for clinical rehabilitation intervention.Methods:A total of 320 patients with cancer undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy who were hospitalized in the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology and Tangshan Worker’s Hospital in China from September 2022 to November 2022 were selected as the research subjects.The surveys were conducted using the general information questionnaire,Connor-Davidson Scale(CD-RICS),Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS)and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale(PSQI).Results:The psychology resilience score of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy was 64.23±15.20,lower than the average level of resilience of adults in China(70.50±13.48)and American adults’normal value(80.4±12.8).Perceived social support was 58.13±14.04 and positively correlated with the level of psychology resilience(r=0.210,P<0.05).Sleep quality was 10.57±4.85,which showed most people have sleep quality disorder and was negatively correlated with the level of psychology resilience(r=-0.200,P<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age,education level and disease stage were the main influencing factors in the level of psychological resilience in cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy(P<0.05).Conclusions:The level of psychological resilience of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy is at a low level,and there are many influencing factors.Targeted medical care should be carried out according to the factors affecting the level of resilience to promote the mental health of patients.

Application of Psychological Elastic Development Model in Postoperative Trauma Growth of Patients with Esophageal Cancer

Purpose: Use the psychological resilience development model to formulate effective nursing measures, and explore the impact of relevant nursing measures on the psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth of patients. Methods: Using a general data sheet, post-traumatic growth scale, and psychological resilience scale, 100 patients discharged from the hospital after esophageal cancer were investigated in groups, and statistical software spss26.0 was used for statistical analysis. Results: The psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth levels of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group, the P-value. Conclusion: As a common gastrointestinal tumor, esophageal cancer is traumatized by surgery. Not only will there be more discomfort during hospitalization, but also a series of complications will still occur after discharge, such as pain, weakness, and other discomforts, which will cause the patient’s emotions. Subject to strong fluctuations, the patient suffers great psychological trauma. After being discharged from the hospital, caregivers need to master more related skills when caring for patients, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and often causes the patients to feel the emotion of dragging the family members. Under the condition of both physical and psychological pressure, patients often appear fearful and uneasy, and suffer great psychological trauma, which leads to low levels of psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth of patients, and related nursing interventions based on Rutter’s psychological development model It can significantly improve the patient’s psychological flexibility, improve the patient’s post-traumatic growth level, promote the patient’s physical and mental recovery, make the patient produce positive emotions, increase positive psychological changes, and thereby improve the patient’s quality of life after discharge.

Uncertainty in illness and coping styles:Moderating and mediating effects of resilience in stroke patients

BACKGROUND Stroke has a great influence on the patient’s mental health,and reasonable psychological adjustment and disease perception can promote the recovery of mental health.AIM To explore the relationships among resilience,coping style,and uncertainty in illness of stroke patients.METHODS A retrospective study was used to investigate 154 stroke patients who were diagnosed and treated at eight medical institutes in Henan province,China from October to December 2019.We used the Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale,the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,and the Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire to test the uncertainty in illness,resilience,and coping style,respectively.RESULTS Resilience had a significant moderating role in the correlation between coping style and unpredictability and information deficiency for uncertainty in illness(P<0.05).Further,the tenacity and strength dimensions of resilience mediated the correlation between the confrontation coping style and complexity,respectively(P<0.05).The strength dimension of resilience mediated the correlation between an avoidance coping style and the unpredictability of uncertainty in illness(P<0.05),as well as correlated with resignation,complexity,and unpredictability(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Resilience has moderating and mediating roles in the associations between coping style and uncertainty in illness,indicating that it is vital to improve resilience and consider positive coping styles for stroke patients in the prevention and control of uncertainty in illness.

Serial Multiple Mediation of the Relationshipbetween Positive Coping Style and PostTraumatic Growth among Chinese CollegeStudents in the Aftermath of COVID-19

Given the ongoing character of COVID-19, higher-education students encountered multifaceted pressures brought about by thepandemic and had to overcome many difficulties during this period. Accordingly, it is imperative to identify the factors that mayhave protective effects on the social functioning and mental status of college students in the aftermath of COVID-19. This crosssectional study sought to ascertain the internal mechanism of positive coping (PC) styles affecting post-traumatic growth (PTG)and considered the mediating roles of cognitive reappraisal (CR), psychological resilience (PR), and deliberate rumination (DR),which are essential for understanding how and to what extent these factors shaped PTG in the context of the present pandemic. 463Chinese college students recruited via a convenience sampling method completed a set of online self-report measures of PC, PTG,CR, PR and DR. The findings revealed that the abovementioned five variables were positively correlated with each other, and theindependent variable directly predicted the dependent variable. More importantly, two out of three mediators in parallel mediatedthe relationship between PC and PTG, illustrating that more PC adoption was associated with increased PTG through high levels ofPR and DR, respectively. The two significant serial mediating effects also indicated that PC could contribute to CR, which furtherfacilitates either PR or DR and subsequently promotes the development of PTG. Colleges should adopt routine protectivebehaviors in accordance with such evidence to strengthen students’ mental health education and establish scientific methods toboost their psychological well-being. Overall, our results may shed new light on the process of positive adaption and providetheoretical support for targeted crisis intervention during the late phase of the pandemic.

A conceptual model of posttraumatic growth of nursing students with a disabled parent

Objectives: To examine a conceptual model of posttraumatic growth (PTG) with the inclusion of family resilience as a mediator,and social support,individual resilience,maternal care,and family members' intimacy after trauma as protective factors.Methods: A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was carried out in a sample of 134 college nursing students who had a parent with a non-congenital disability.The Socio-demographic Information Questionnaire,the Chinese version of Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS),10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC10),Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI),Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS) and the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) were used to collect data.Results: Results showed that social support,individual resilience,maternal care,and family members' intimacy after trauma positively predicted family resilience (β=0.41,0.20,0.20,0.22,all P<0.01),respectively,and indirectly predicted PTG through family resilience.Family resilience positively predicted PTG (β =0.25,P < 0.01).Moreover,individual resilience directly positively predicted PTG (β =0.25,P < 0.001).Conclusions: Family resilience could facilitate PTG in nursing students in the face of parental disability.Interventions to promote PTG among college nursing students who have experienced parental disability should consider individual or family resilience-based intervention.

Current Status and Influencing Factors of the Quality of Work Life of Nurses in Intensive Care Unit

Objective: To investigate the current status and influencing factors of the quality of work life of nurses in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods: A total of 243 ICU nurses from 6 general hospitals in Jingzhou were selected by convenient sampling method. Questionnaires were conducted with the general information questionnaire, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Work-Related Quality of Life Scale-2 (WRQoL-2). Results: The total average score of the quality of work life of ICU nurses was (3.35 ± 0.44), which was at a medium level. Department, professional title, frequency of night shift, experience of workplace violence and psychological resilience were the influencing factors of the quality of work life of nurses in ICU, accounting for 39.4% of the variance. Conclusion: The quality of work life of ICU nurses needs to be improved. Nursing managers should pay attention to the work environment of ICU nurses, rationally allocate manpower, and improve the status of psychological resilience of nurses, so as to improve their quality of work life.

Community Workers’Social Support and Sleep Quality during the Coronavirus Disease 2019(COVID-19):A Moderated Mediation Model

To explore the relationship between social support and sleep quality of community workers in Wuhan during the coronavirus disease 2019(the COVID-19 infection epidemic),this research constructed a mediating effect model to explore the mediating psychological mechanism of social support influencing sleep quality of front-line community workers.A total of 500 front-line community workers in Wuhan were investigated.We used the perceived social support scale(PSSS),the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC),the perceived stress scale(PSS),and the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)to measure social support,psychological resilience,perceived stress and sleep quality.Specifically,the higher the PSQI,the worse the sleep quality.Pearson correlation structural equation model was used to analyze the relationship between these factors.The results showed that:(1)There was a significant negative correlation between social support,psychological resilience,and perceived stress of community workers and PSQI,that means,the higher the level of social support,psychological resilience,and perceived stress,the higher the sleep quality.(2)Social support positively predicted psychological resilience and perceived stress,and perceived stress negatively predicted PSQI.(3)Social support can affect sleep quality through the mediating role of psychological resilience and perceived stress,and the mediating role includes two paths:the single mediating role of perceived stress and the chain mediating role of psychological resilience-perceived stress.(4)Gender moderates the relation-ship between social support and perceived stress,and the influence of social support on perceived stress of women is higher than that of men.Gender moderates the relationship between psychological resilience and PSQI,and only women’s psychological resilience had a negatively predictive effect on PSQI,while men did not,which means that psychological resilience of female frontline community workers can positively predict sleep quality.This research reveals the relationship between social support and sleep quality and its mechanism and verifies that social support can indirectly affect physical health through psychological resilience and perceived stress.It provides reference suggestions and intervention guidance for improving the sleep quality of community workers.
