“…Thus, social support influences depressive symptoms only to the extent that it has an impact on motivational processes. The present findings are consistent with previous research (Benight and Bandura 2004;Bisconti and Bergeman 1999;Cutrona and Troutman 1986;Saltzman and Holahan 2002;Smith et al 2000) and with the assumption that social support operates through adaptive mechanisms such as self-efficacy (Berkman et al 2000) and coping (Holahan et al 1997a).…”

“…In a variety of studies, self-efficacy has been found to mediate the relationship between social support and depression (Benight and Bandura 2004;Cutrona and Troutman 1986;Saltzman and Holahan 2002). Other studies found personal resources such as self-esteem (Brown et al 1986), coping strategies (Holahan et al 1997b), and mastery (Jang et al 2002) played a role in the association between social support and depression.…”

This study investigates the role of a motivational process based on a composite of four subcomponents (self-efficacy, decision regulation, activation regulation and motivation regulation), as a mediator of the relationship between social support and depression assessed with the Geriatric Depression Scale in cognitively impaired and unimpaired individuals. Participants were 229 adults with a mean age of 74 years (range: 52-94 years). The sample comprised 64 participants diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), 47 participants diagnosed with earlystage Alzheimer's disease (AD), and a group of 118 participants without any cognitive impairment. In this crosssectional study, bivariate correlations and linear regression models were used to assess the association between the predictor variables and depression. Linear regression models were controlled for age, gender, education, cognitive status, cognitive impairment and activities. In the total Based on these findings, it can be argued that the impact of social support on depressive symptoms is attenuated by cerebral deterioration in cognitively impaired individuals, while motivational processes remain relevant.

“…28 An individual's perception of the threat inherent in a situation or event, and their own capability to cope with environmental factors is proposed to influence recovery from injury. 29 Those who were more dissatisfied may have perceived the need to be more cautious and make allowances for their knee, or appraised that their knee was less likely to be able to withstand the demands of the activities they wanted to participate in. The fact that self-efficacy was the only significant psychological factor in the multivariable model may highlight its clinical importance.…”

Purpose: To assess whether patient-reported outcomes (psychological factors, appraisals of knee function, and physical activity participation) were associated with satisfaction with knee function after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Methods: Participants who were aged 18 to 45 years and a minimum 12 months post primary ACL reconstruction completed a questionnaire battery evaluating knee self-efficacy, knee-related quality of life, self-reported function, and physical activity participation. Participants responses to the question "If you were to spend the rest of your life with your knee just the way it has been in the last week, would you feel.... (7-point ordinal scale; 1 = happy, 7 = unhappy)" were categorized as satisfied, mostly satisfied, or dissatisfied and used as the primary outcome. Ordinal regression was used to examine associations between independent variables and the primary outcome. Results: A total of 177 participants were included at an average of 3 years after primary ACL reconstruction. At follow-up, 44% reported they would be satisfied, 28% mostly satisfied, and 28% dissatisfied with the outcome of ACL reconstruction. There were significant differences in psychological responses and appraisal of knee function between the 3 groups (P = .001), and significantly more people in the satisfied group had returned to their preinjury activity (58%) than in the mostly satisfied (28%) and dissatisfied (26%) groups (P = .001). Multivariable analysis demonstrated that the odds of being satisfied increased by a factor of 3 with higher self-efficacy, greater knee-related quality of life, and returning to the preinjury activity. Conclusions: People who had returned to their preinjury physical activity and who reported higher knee-related self-efficacy and quality of life were more likely to be satisfied with the outcome of ACL reconstruction

“…However, mental health difficulties are not prominent in the sample. Studies identifying themes of resilience and hardiness find that these coping mechanism function as independent mediators of post-traumatic recovery supporting this central theme in a belief in one's own ability to exercise control over traumatic adversity [73][74]. In addition, this fortitude serves to help one cope with death anxiety and mediate its effect on PTSD [75].…”

Objectives:Research was conducted examining how death anxiety influenced PTSD and mental health among people who have experienced a lifethreatening event.Design & Methods:This study was conducted using undergraduate university students in Lithuania. The study used a mixed-method design and in phase 1, participants (N=97) completed self-report questionnaires that gathered information on demographics, death anxiety, trauma and well-being. Results:Data indicated a significant correlation between death anxiety and PTSD, but not psychiatric co-morbidity. Phase 2 attempted to further explore the phenomenological experience of participants with full PTSD, and 6 semi-structured interviews were conducted. IPA analysis found three major themes in response to the life-threatening event;self-efficacy, religious coping and existential attitude. Conclusion:Overall these coping mechanisms allowed participants to develop resilience against the effects of death anxiety and minimize its negative impact on mental health.
