METHODS: Participants were 329 male and female Chinese adults aged 60 years or older. Data were collected using the Sojump application for an online survey. The double mediating effect was analyzed using PROCESS Macro 3.5 Model 6.
RESULTS: The results revealed that music use as a coping mechanism and stress regulation by music were not significantly correlated with subjective happiness of COAs, whereas these were positively correlated with their life satisfaction. Additionally, life satisfaction of COAs was positively correlated with subjective happiness. Stress regulation by music and life satisfaction completely mediated the relationship between music use as a coping mechanism and subjective happiness of COAs during COVID-19. In the double mediation model, music use as a coping mechanism positively influenced stress regulation by music (β = 0.704), stress regulation by music positively influenced life satisfaction (β = 0.162), and life satisfaction positively influenced subjective happiness (β = 0.498).
CONCLUSIONS: Therefore, music can promote happiness in COAs in stressful situations through stress regulation and life satisfaction.
方法:参与者为329名男性和女性60岁以上的中国成年人。使用Sojump应用程序收集数据进行在线调查。使用过程宏3.5模型6分析了双中介效应。
结果:结果表明,音乐作为应对机制的使用和音乐对压力的调节与COAs的主观幸福感没有显着相关,而这些与他们的生活满意度呈正相关。此外,生活满意度与主观幸福感呈正相关。音乐的压力调节和生活满意度完全介导了作为应对机制的音乐使用与COVID-19期间COAs的主观幸福感之间的关系。在双重调解模式中,音乐使用作为一种应对机制,对音乐的压力调节产生积极影响(β=0.704),音乐对压力的调节对生活满意度有正向影响(β=0.162),生活满意度对主观幸福感有正向影响(β=0.498)。
结论:因此,音乐可以通过压力调节和生活满意度在紧张的情况下促进快乐。
