“…Similarly, Ferreira et al reported a higher level of anxiety and lower QoL during home quarantine of COVID-19 [ 14 ]. QoL is a continuous multifaceted concept that refers to physical, social, functional, and psychological well-being [ 15 ]. Previous studies have reported increased mental disorders such as fear, anxiety, and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic.…”

Background Given the vulnerability of older people to COVID-19, it is important to consider their physical and mental wellbeing and quality of life (QoL) in the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the present study was aimed to identify the QoL and its predictive factors among a sample of Iranian older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted on 500 older people residing in Qazvin, Iran, from May 22th to November 21rd, 2021. Multistage cluster sampling method was used for selecting the eligible older adults. Data were collected using the demographic checklist, fear of COVID-19 scale, and Elderly Quality of Life Questionnaire (LIPAD). The multivariate regression model was used for determining the predictive factors of QoL in older people. Results The mean age of older participants was 69.17 ± 6.75 years old. The results of multivariate regression model showed that fear of COVID-19, age, marital status, level of education, living arrangement, and economic situation were the significant predictors of QoL in the older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusions It is recommended to pay close attention to divorced, lonely, and illiterate older people and those with low economic situation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…These factors include greater anxiety, depression [ 5 ], anger [ 6 ], aggression, hostility [ 7 ], sadness, decreased sexual function [ 8 ], dysfunctional interpersonal relationships [ 9 ], suicide ideation [ 10 ], and thoughts of mortality [ 11 ]. Quality of life is defined as a feeling of well-being that results from satisfaction or dissatisfaction with aspects of life that are important to the individual, including the interactions of physical and psychological health, spiritual wellbeing, social capital, socio-economic status, and social support [ 12 , 13 ]. Therefore, people's perceptions of their quality of life, even with the same health, may be drastically different.…”

Self-care behaviors mediates the relationship between resilience and quality of life in breast cancer patients

et al. 2022

Previous studies have shown that resilience could play an important role in enhancing the quality of life in women with breast cancer; however, the mediating role of self-care behaviors have not been studied. This study aims to explore the mediating role of self-care behaviors in the relationship between resilience and quality of life in breast cancer patients. A sample of 195 women with breast cancer (aged from 21 to 60 years; M = 45.32 ± 8.2) from three hospitals in Tehran, Iran completed online questionnaires measuring resilience, self-care and quality of life. The results of structural equation modeling showed that resilience (β = 0.546, p < .01) and self-care behaviors (β = 0.621, p < .01) positively predicted the quality of life in breast cancer patients. The bootstrapping analysis showed that self-care behaviors acted as a partial mediator between resilience and quality of life. The present study brings to light an underlying mechanism of the relationship between resilience and quality of life via the mediating variable of self-care behaviors for patients with breast cancer.

“…Considering the impact of CVD on QOL, including increased mortality, problems returning to work, and disruption in performing daily tasks [15,16], examining the determinants of QOL in people with CVD becomes important. The results of some studies have shown that QOL is related to basic variables such as depression [17], anxiety [18], spiritual well-being and social support [17], spiritual health [19], and income [17] in patients with CVD. Recently, a great amount of evidence has emphasised the role of protective factors, suggesting that psychological resilience resources are associated with a lower risk of CVD and may promote healthy behaviours and cardiovascular health [20].…”

Background: Population ageing is considered one of the biggest challenges facing the world, and the status of the elderly in society and their quality of life (QOL) have proved to be a concern in professional and scientific research circles. As a result, the current study sought to investigate the role of pain self-efficacy (PSE) as a moderator in the relationship between sense of coherence (SOC), spiritual well-being, and self-compassion with QOL in Iranian elderly with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Method: This was a correlational study of the path analysis type. The statistical population included all elderly people with CVD who were at least 60 years of age in Kermanshah Province, Iran, in 2022, of whom 298 (181 men and 117 women) were selected using convenience sampling and according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The participants answered questionnaires from the World Health Organization on QOL, Paloutzian and Ellison’s spiritual well-being, Nicholas’s PSE, Antonovsky’s SOC, and Raes et al.’s self-compassion. Results: The results of path analysis demonstrated that the hypothesised model of this study has a good fit in the studied sample. In this way, SOC, spiritual well-being, and self-compassion had a significant relationship with QOL through PSE. Conclusion: These results emphasise the importance of the role of PSE in increasing the quality of life of the elderly with CVD.
