Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The pandemic and the associated consequences have been ongoing stressors with severe impacts on the population and particularly on families. Research focusing on groups dealing well with the challenges of the pandemic is scarce. Here, we aimed to identify groups being well-adjusted during the pandemic and associated predictors.
METHODS: A representative sample of the German population (N = 2,515, 51.6% women, 50.09 years), and a subsample of persons with children or adolescents under the age of 18 (N = 453, 60.3% women, 40.08 years) was assessed from July to October 2021. As huge differences in coping with the pandemic are seen, cluster analysis was performed.
RESULTS: Persons in the \"well-adjusted cluster\" were characterized by higher quality of life, better coping with the pandemic and lower burden of the pandemic. The family subsample well-adjusted cluster was characterized by lower pandemic-associated burden, lower parental stress compared to before the pandemic and a better relationship with the child. Fewer mental health symptoms and less pandemic-associated negative impact on career predicted membership of the well-adjusted cluster in both samples. An interaction between mental health symptoms and the negative impact of COVID-19 on the career was found.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results underscore the importance of mental health and work-related factors for coping with the pandemic.
摘要:
背景:大流行及其相关后果一直是压力源,对人口尤其是家庭造成严重影响。专注于应对大流行挑战的群体的研究很少。这里,我们的目标是确定在大流行期间调整良好的群体和相关预测因素.
方法:德国人口的代表性样本(N=2,515,51.6%的女性,50.09年),以及18岁以下儿童或青少年的子样本(N=453,60.3%女性,40.08年)从2021年7月至10月进行评估。随着人们在应对大流行方面的巨大差异,进行聚类分析。
结果:“调整良好的集群”中的人具有较高的生活质量,更好地应对大流行,减轻大流行的负担。家庭子样本调整良好的集群的特点是与大流行相关的负担较低,与大流行前相比,父母的压力更低,与孩子的关系也更好。在两个样本中,较少心理健康症状和与大流行相关的对职业的负面影响较少,可以预测到经过良好调整的集群的成员资格。研究发现,心理健康症状与COVID-19对职业生涯的负面影响之间存在相互作用。
结论:我们的结果强调了心理健康和工作相关因素对应对大流行的重要性。
