“…In the present study, factor 1 consisted of questions 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 10, and factor 2 consisted of questions 4, 5, 7, and 8. Our results are similar to previous studies in different populations that indicated that Factor 1 included 6 items about general distress; Factor 2 included 4 items about the ability to control 13,14,[20][21][22][23] . Regarding the psychometric properties of the PSS10d scale, it presented satisfactory internal reliability that was comparable to the internal reliability obtained for the original version of PSS10 and passed the desirable value (α = 0.87) 15) and also to the internal reliability obtained for the classical Arabic version of PSS10 established previously (α = 0.74) by Chaaya et al 14) .…”

Introduction:The possible contribution of psychological stress to the development of breast cancer (BC) has been largely investigated. One of the most extensively used psychological scales is the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), which demonstrates sufficient reliability and validity. Thus, the purposes of this study were first to translate the PSS-10 into the Moroccan Arabic dialect language and second to evaluate its validity in women with BC. Methods: A method of translation and counter-translation into the Moroccan dialect was performed for the 10-item of PSS. Then the translated questionnaire was administered to a representative sample of 100 women with BC. Validation of metrological qualities was established by examining: internal reliability, test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and factorial structure. Results:The Moroccan version of the PSS showed a good internal reliability (α = 0.87) and test-retest reliability (0.95 with IC 95% = [0.88, 0.98]). The confirmatory factor analysis showed a bi-dimensional structure with two related latent factors. Moreover, the principal component analysis of the PSS allowed us to extract two factors that explained 67% of the total variance. Conclusions:We showed that the Moroccan version of the PSS-10 has good internal consistency and reliability. The factor structure is similar to that of the PSS translated into other languages. We consider this version of the PSS-10 to be an adequate instrument for assessing perceived stress in the Moroccan population. Moreover, it will be interesting to conduct further studies as comparative investigations between patients with BC and healthy women by using this validated Scale PSS.

“…Seventy-eight percent of patients depended on financial resources such as retirement or unemployment benefits. This figure is higher than that reported for patients undergoing other types of RRT such as ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, where 60% of individuals were found to be professionally inactive [ 34 ]. In this study, those who remained active in the workplace (with very low representation in our sample) and above all retired individuals had lower levels of perceived stress than the unemployed or those engaged in domestic work, possibly due to better income (typically a protective factor against stress) and higher levels of activity and socialization (also protective against stress) [ 34 ].…”

Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease undergo various stages of therapeutic adaptation which involve lifestyle modifications, physical changes, and adjustment to renal replacement therapy. This process produces adaptive stress. Objective: To identify how resilience, health- related quality of life, and sociodemographic, clinical, and hemodialysis routine-related variables are related to perceived stress in patients with chronic kidney disease receiving hemodialysis for more than six months. Methods: This was a multicenter and cross-sectional study involving 144 patients from the Valencian Community (Spain). The assessment scales used for the study were the Perceived Stress Scale 10, the Kidney Disease Quality of Life 36, and the Connors–Davidson Resilience Scale. To identify variables with predictive power over Perceived Stress Scale 10 scores, multiple regression analyses were performed. Results: Employment status (p = 0.003), resilience (p < 0.001), and quality of life (p < 0.001) were shown to be significantly related to perceived stress. The regression models determined that health-related quality of life and resilience explained up to 27.1% of the variance of total PSS10 scores. Conclusions: Resilience was identified as one of the most important predictors of Perceived Stress Scale 10 scores. Thus, the development of interventions to promote resilience may have a positive impact on perceived stress in patients with chronic kidney disease.

“…Stress. We used the German [18], French [19], and Italian [20] version of the Perceived Stress Scale (PPS-10) (10-items) [21,22]. The widely used PSS is based on the stress-related components of unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloading life events (e.g., "In the last month, how often have you been angry because of things that were outside your control?…”

Understanding the psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and containment measures: An empirical model of stress

et al. 2021

Epidemics such as COVID-19 and corresponding containment measures are assumed to cause psychological stress. In a survey during the lockdown in Switzerland (n = 1565), we found substantially increased levels of stress in the population. In particular, individuals who did not agree with the containment measures, as well as those who saw nothing positive in the crisis, experienced high levels of stress. In contrast, individuals who are part of a risk group or who are working in healthcare or in essential shops experienced similar stress levels as the general public. The psychological mechanisms that determine stress, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and containment measures, are not yet clear. Thus, we conducted a path analysis to gain a deeper understanding of the psychological mechanisms that lead to stress. Experiencing fear of the disease is a key driver for being worried. Our model further shows that worries about the individual, social, and economic consequences of the crisis, strongly boost stress. The infection rate in the canton (i.e., state) of residence also contributes to stress. Positive thinking and perceived social, organizational, and governmental support mitigate worries and stress. Our findings indicate that containment measures increase worries and stress, especially for those who feel that these measures either are not sufficient or go too far. Thus, highlighting positive aspects of the crisis and convincing people of the effectiveness and necessity of mitigation measures can, not only promote compliance, but also reduce stress. Our model suggests that people who feel protected by the authorities have fewer worries, which can, in turn, limit the negative impact of the crisis on mental health.
