“…Higher PR levels are associated with lower QoL scores, better quality of life in diabetic patients. Meanwhile, in previous studies [ 44 ], the PR score of normal population was 68.82 ± 12.97, however, in our study the PR score of diabetes patients was only 33.73 ± 13.71, which was much lower than the normal population, and this phenomenon suggests that the PR level of diabetes patients is low compared to the normal population, which is consistent with the findings of previous studies have shown that PR is related to individual social adaptability and the QoL, has many positive effects on maintaining the function, subjective well-being, and improving QoL, and plays an important role in defense against negative events [ 45 , 46 ]. Diabetes is a chronic disease that requires ongoing medical management to reduce the risk of acute and chronic complications and improve QoL [ 47 , 48 ].…”

Background Although some factors, such as stigma and empowerment, influence the complex relationship between psychological resilience and quality of life, few studies have explored similar psychological mechanisms among patients with diabetes. Therefore, this study explored the mediating role of stigma and the moderating role of empowerment in the psychological mechanisms by which psychological resilience affects quality of life. Methods From June to September 2022, data were collected by multi-stage stratified sampling and random number table method. Firstly, six tertiary hospitals in Wuhu were numbered and then selected using the random number table method, resulting in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College being selected. Secondly, two departments were randomly selected from this hospital: endocrinology and geriatrics. Thirdly, survey points were set up in each department, and T2DM patients were randomly selected for questionnaire surveys. In addition, we used the Connor-Davidson Elasticity Scale (CD-RISC) to measure the psychological resilience of patients, and used the Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI) to measure stigma. Empowerment was measured by the Diabetes Empowerment Scale (DES). Quality of Life was assessed by the Diabetes Quality of Life Scale (DQoL). We used SPSS (version 21) and PROCESS (version 4.1) for data analysis. Results (1) Psychological resilience was negatively correlated with stigma and quality of life, and positively correlated with empowerment. Stigma was positively associated with empowerment and quality of life. Empowerment was negatively correlated with quality of life. (2) The mediation analysis showed that psychological resilience had a direct predictive effect on the quality of life, and stigma partially mediated the relationship; Empowerment moderates the first half of "PR → stigma → quality of life"; Empowerment moderates the latter part of "PR → stigma → quality of life." Conclusions Under the mediating effect of stigma, psychological resilience can improve quality of life. Empowerment has a moderating effect on the relationship between psychological resilience and stigma, and it also has a moderating effect on the relationship between stigma and quality of life. These results facilitate the understanding of the relationship mechanisms between psychological resilience and quality of life.

“…Comparative analysis is often used to compare two related data analyses, showing and explaining the size, level, speed, and integration of multiple relationships of the research object. In this study, the survey groups were compared between groups and within groups, and the survey results were compared and analyzed: (1) inter group survey: the data from the statistical results of college students from divorced families and college students from non-divorced families were compared in terms of Ideological and psychological status and (2) intra group investigation: compare the ideological and psychological status of college students from divorced families with different genders, grades, and growth backgrounds (urban/rural) ( Mace et al, 2021 ). Interview refers to psychological research to understand the psychology and behavior of the interviewee through face-to-face conversation between the interviewer and the interviewee.…”

In order to analyze the intervention effect of integrating mental health knowledge into ideological and political teaching on college students’ employment and entrepreneurship mentality, this paper proposes a study to predict the effect of integrated intervention. This research mainly investigates the ideological and psychological conditions of college students from divorced families through questionnaires, compares and analyzes the classification and statistical results of the survey data between groups and within groups, and analyzes the reasons for the ideological and psychological problems of college students. The experimental results show that 30% of college students from divorced families and college students from non-divorced families responded that they do not feel comfortable in places with many people, and the difference between the groups is not significant. Regarding the concept of entrepreneurship, 64.63% of college students from divorced families in urban areas believe that entrepreneurship is a form of learning and should be encouraged. 63.27% of college students from divorced families in rural areas believe that learning should be the first priority and that a business should not be started. 20.41% of college students from divorced families in rural areas and 25.61% of college students from divorced families in urban areas believe that because entrepreneurship provides economic income, it can reduce the burden on families, but the difference is not obvious. In short, this study can provide reference for the ideological and psychological status of college students from divorced families.

“…When people are faced with adversity, traumatic events and post-events, their level of PR plays an important role in maintaining or restoring their psychological well-being. Academic research ( 24 , 25 ) on the relationship between PR and depression has shown a significant correlation between the two. Martin and Marsh reported ( 26 ) that PR was a significant predictor of depression in people with diabetes.…”

ObjectiveDepression in diabetes patients is caused by their own disease or the surrounding social environment. How to cope with changes in mentality and adjust psychological stress responses, especially under China’s dynamic zero COVID-19 policy, is worth further discussion. The researchers constructed a moderated mediation model to test the effect of psychological resilience during dynamic zero COVID-19 on depression in diabetes patients and the mediating role of stigma and the moderating effect of medication burden.MethodFrom June to September, 2022, data were collected in Jinghu District, Wuhu City, Anhui Province, by multi-stage stratified sampling. Firstly, we selected a tertiary hospital randomly in Jinghu District. Secondly, departments are randomly chosen from the hospital. Finally, we set up survey points in each department and randomly select diabetes patients. In addition, we used the Connor-Davidson Elasticity Scale (CD-RISC) to measure psychological resilience of patients, and used the Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI) to measure stigma, medication burden was measured by the Diabetes Treatment Burden Scale (DTBQ), and depression was assessed by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). We used SPSS (version 23.0) and PROCESS (version 4.1) for data analysis.Results(1) Psychological resilience was negatively correlated with stigma, medication burden, and depression. Stigma was positively associated with medication burden and depression. Medication burden and depression are positively correlated, (2) The mediation analysis showed that psychological resilience had a direct predictive effect on depression, and stigma partially mediated the relationship, and (3) Medication burden moderates the direct pathway by which psychological resilience predicts depression; Medication burden moderates the first half of “psychological resilience → stigma → depression.”ConclusionUnder the mediating effect of stigma, psychological resilience can improve depression. Medication burden has a moderating effect on the relationship between psychological resilience and depression, and it also has a moderating effect on the relationship between psychological resilience and stigma. These results facilitate the understanding of the relationship mechanisms between psychological resilience and depression.
