“…From an evolutionary perspective, psychological well-being has been associated with the terms quality of life and mental health (Popescu, 2016 ; Loera-Malvaez et al, 2017 ; Sarafraz et al, 2019 ). In this respect, quality of life is understood from a multidimensional perspective that addresses the most relevant dimensions of an individual's life (Cancino et al, 2016 ; Losada-Puente, 2018 ).…”

Adolescents are frequently faced with situations in which they have to make decisions by choosing from a range of possible alternatives. In such circumstances, individual, social, and environmental conditions have an impact on the choice of the final decision in light of the various options presented. The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between the psychological well-being of adolescent students and their decision-making style. The research method used corresponds to an ex post facto, quantitative, transversal, correlational, and descriptive design, with an initial sample of 1,262 students from the Autonomous Community of Madrid, Spain, aged 13-19. A subsequent resampling of 385 participants was extracted from the initial sample by proportional allocation to strata (according to the levels of the variables gender, academic year, and educational institution classification) to guarantee the representativeness of the population data. Data collection uses the first Spanish adaptation of Ryff's Psychological well-being Scale and the Flinders Adolescent Decision Making Questionnaire, adapted by Friedman and Mann. The data shows that greater use of adaptive decision-making strategies correlates significantly with greater psychological well-being. In contrast, the correlation is high and negative at the intersection of the maladaptive decision-making variables and psychological well-being.

“…Gilavand et al (2017) indicate that Telegram is used the most for learning and education (50%), followed by WhatsApp (26%), Viber (7%), Facebook (5%), Instagram (2%) and others (11%). Sarafraz et al (2019) demonstrate that the use of Telegram, WhatsApp and Instagram has a positive effect on anxiety and depression on students from Shiraz, Iran. The method proposed by Karimpour et al (2021) recommends groups based on users' interests, using their membership and analysing their membership records.…”

A model is introduced to investigate the effect of social media application qualities on the using of these applications for daily news. A standard questionnaire was designed and distributed among randomly selected social media users in the city of Neyshabur in Iran. The content of the questionnaire was validated by experts and its reliability verified using Cronbach's alpha. Random sampling was used identify participants. The SmartPLS software was used to investigate the research findings. Structural equation modelling is used for data analysis. The results show that the factors of system quality, information quality, service quality and personalization of applications affect their perceived usefulness. System quality and service quality affect the perceived ease of use of applications. However, information quality does not affect perceived ease of use. Also, the results show that perceived usefulness has a greater effect (with a path coefficient of 45%) on the attitude in respect of perceived ease of use (path coefficient of 26%). Personalization has the most positive impact on perceived usefulness and service quality has a great impact on perceived ease of use. Facilitating conditions have a positive impact on the use of social media and their use for news. Furthermore, the results show that the factors that affect the use of applications in Telegram are better than those in Viber. These findings justify why Iranian people migrate from Viber to Telegram as their social media application.

“…found that social media had a significant effect on students’ academic performance, psychological well-being, depression, stress, and anxiety. [ 18 ] Given a lack of similar studies in this regard, further investigations are recommended. Furthermore, significant correlations were denoted between the scores of the positive acceptance of change and safe relations with work experience, which is inconsistent with the study by Jafar Jalal et al .…”

BACKGROUND: As the core of a health-care team, nurses play a key role in promoting community health, and their job involves witnessing human suffering and pain in health-care settings. The present study aimed to evaluate the correlations between resilience coping strategies, and the underlying factors in the nurses working in COVID-19 hospitals. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted on 320 nurses working in COVID-19 wards for a minimum of 6 months in 2021. The participants were selected via multistage sampling. Data were collected using demographic, resilience, and coping strategy instruments. Data analysis was performed in SPSS version 20. RESULTS: The mean resilience score was 76.94 ± 11.33. The mean scores of emotion-focused and problem-focused strategies were 59.65 ± 4.40 and 96.08 ± 5.38, respectively. The assessment of the correlation between resilience with the emotion-focused and problem-focused strategies showed a positive significant correlation ( r = 0.25; P < 0.001 and r = 0.33; P < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION: According to the results, the nurses working in COVID-19 wards mostly adopted problem-focused strategies in difficult work conditions depending on the required care provision. Both coping strategies significantly affected the subscales of resilience in the nurses. Therefore, it is recommended that special attention be paid to teaching strategies to cope with anxiety and resilience and develop problem-solving skills in nursing personnel during the emergence and outbreak of new diseases in order to reduce their anxiety.
