“…Moreover, therapy and targeted management techniques have been essential for addressing distress symptoms and mitigating health risks (Montgomery et al, 2021; Simpson et al, 2022). To assess the efficacy of these interventions, reliable scales and instruments have been used to evaluate individuals’ mental health, performance, and personality traits (Linden et al, 2022; Windle et al, 2022). Not only do these evaluations track progress, but they also help tailor interventions to better meet the specific needs of various populations.…”

In this article, we offer an exhaustive analysis of academic work on psychological flexibility using bibliometric techniques. We identify emerging trends in a dataset of 3535 scholarly articles from the Web of Science database. We highlight key publications, map out the field’s intellectual framework, and anticipate future research avenues through co-citation and co-word analytics. The co-citation assessment revealed five distinct clusters, while the co-word analysis showed three. Although research regarding psychological flexibility has gained recent popularity, there remains a need for more scholarly initiatives to achieve a nuanced understanding of this subject.

“…U niversity students frequently struggle with their mental health as they navigate the transitional life stage from adolescence to adulthood within the university context (Anderson-Fye and Floersch 2011;Condra et al 2015;Council of Ontario Universities 2017;Kessler et al 2005;Lester 2011;Linden, Grey, and Stuart 2018;Ontario University and College Health Association 2017;Stallman 2010). I explore how the social context of the North American university influences these experiences of mental health struggles, revealing how the conflation of productivity and mental health in the university context leads to the stigmatization of unproductive students as "lazy" and not meeting normative expectations about what it means to be a "good" student.…”

“The Grind Never Stops” Mental Health and Expectations of Productivity in the North American University

Using a critical phenomenology approach, I explore how the neoliberal social context of the North American university produces normative expectations which both interact with and pattern student experiences and understandings of mental health struggles in this environment. The data I analyze comes from semi-structured interviews with 24 university students between 18 and 24 years of age who self-identify as experiencing mental health struggles, as well as participant observation at university wellness events. In this context, both students and the university understand wellness as the ability to maintain constant academic productivity. While university wellness programming promotes goal-oriented individualized “self”-care as the gold standard for attaining and maintaining wellness, students often view self-care activities as unproductive, instead prioritizing academic productivity over subjective well-being in striving to maintain an image as the “good” student. I argue that understanding mental health in this way both causes and exacerbates harm, introducing the conceptual contrast between “Student Wellness”—academic success—and “Human Wellness”—subjective well- being—as a means of understanding how university attempts to increase wellness often support neoliberal agendas to the detriment of their students’ well-being.

“…However, it is important to note that these abridged scales have not gained extensive traction across various contexts, and they lack the specific multidimensional framework exhibited by the original CD-RISC-25. In contrast, the CD-RISC-25 has demonstrated its robustness by undergoing assessment across diverse populations, including individuals with mental health conditions [ 1 ], university students [ 9 ], survivors of trauma [ 10 ], and individuals with opioid dependency [ 11 ].…”

Background The Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) stands out as a widely used measure of psychological resilience. The original CD-RISC consists of 25 items, commonly referred to as CD-RISC-25. Aim This study aims to validate the Arabic version of the CD-RISC-25 involving a sample size of 1220 participants from three universities in Jordan. Methods The researcher conducted a methodological investigation to examine the validation process. This included an examination of the translation process and an evaluation of content validity, which was assessed using the content validity index (CVI). Construct validity was assessed through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, while convergent and discriminant validity were both evaluated using composite reliability (CR) and the square root of the average variance extracted. Results Results showed a prominent level of psychological resilience 76.74±15.2 among the participating university students. Regarding the validity of the Arabic version of CD-RISC-25, the CVI yielded a value of 0.88, signifying a robust level of content validity. The analysis identified four constructs that accounted for 56.26% of the total variance. The goodness-of-fit indices, including goodness of fit index of 0.91, comparative fit index of 0.91, incremental fit index of 0.93, Tucker-Lewis index of 0.94, and root mean square error of approximation of 0.048, provided strong evidence supporting the alignment between the observed data and the hypothesized constructs. Discriminant and convergent validity were found to support the validity of the Arabic version of CD-RISC-25. Regarding the reliability, it demonstrated excellent reliability, with a total Cronbach’s alpha of 0.934 and all CR values surpassing the threshold of 0.70, thereby further establishing its overall robustness. Conclusion The results provide substantial evidence for the validity and reliability of the translated Arabic CD-RISC-25.
