“…The results suggest that in the collectivistic Chinese culture, support from family and society is important for fostering resilience during the early-adulthood period. The variable of life-events was previously reported to be negatively correlated with resilience [ 30 ], and was a risk factor for T1 resilience. Taken together, the results point to a cumulative impact of longstanding childhood EN and extraversion, recent resilience, and current life-events, depression and social-support on early-adulthood resilience (Hypotheses 2 and Hypotheses 3: recent and current life-events, social support, and depression may play a medium-term mediating role in the relationship between long-term psychosocial vulnerability and early-adulthood resilience), which helped to reveal the longitudinal temporal process underlying the development of early-adulthood resilience using long-term (childhood EN and extraversion), medium-term (resilience of two years ago), and short-term (current life-events, depression and social-support) predictors.…”

“…Importantly, in an earlier famous longitudinal study, Werner [ 25 ] found that children with poor resilience would get a promotion in resilience later when they had learn more about coping with adversity, and suggested a potential short-term mediation mechanism between early-life trauma and early-adulthood resilience, which contains a risk and resilience framework [ 26 , 27 ], such as depression (risk factor) [ 28 ], life-events (risk factor) [ 29 ], and social support (protective factor) [ 30 ]. Notably, study has shown that depression in early-adulthood is associated with early-life maltreatment and low resilience [ 31 ].…”

“…Moreover, social support also has an effect on resilience. Social support when facing stressful events improves quality of life [ 37 ], and mediates the relationship between early-life trauma and allostatic load across the life span [ 30 ]. Likewise, friendship support predicts both immediate and later resilience [ 38 , 39 ].…”

Resilience is important for people to maintain mental health after negative life-events. However, its longitudinal psychological and social predictors are poorly revealed. Based on the ecological system theory model, the current study aimed to determine the longitudinal temporal mechanism underlying the development of early-adulthood resilience using long-term (early-life trauma and personality), medium-term and short-term (life-events, social support, and depression) psychosocial predictors. A total of 505 university students were recruited at baseline (T1), 433 of whom took part in a three-year longitudinal investigation (T2). The results showed that at T1 and T2, the resilience scores of individuals were identically high (72.98 and 73.21, respectively). Pearson correlation analysis showed that early-adulthood resilience was negatively correlated with early-life trauma, psychoticism and neuroticism, depression, ad life-events, and positively correlated with extraversion, social-support, and resilience. Regression and structural equation models showed that extraversion had a direct positive effect on T1 resilience through the mediation of T1 life-events, depression, and social-support, while childhood emotional neglect (EN) had indirect negative effect and extraversion had direct positive effect on T2 resilience through the mediation of T1 resilience, and T2 depression and social-support. In conclusion, this study is among the first to reveal the longitudinal temporal process of the development of early-adulthood resilience using remote and adjacent psychosocial predictors. The findings confirm that childhood EN and extraversion have a remote impact on early-adulthood resilience through recent and current depression and social-support. Our results imply that early-life trauma does not hinder the development of early-adulthood resilience in a linear trend.

“…According to the study of Moon et al [39], the mother's parenting duties, as well as her day-to-day work, are greatly increased with COVID-19, which increases the risk of burnout. A mother's burden can lead to psychological problems in her children, which in the long term extends into adulthood and can affect various areas of life [40]. However, participants tried not to express their stress of burden and anxiety in uncertain situations in front of their child and did not take adequate care of themselves.…”

Purpose: The world saw a shift into a new society consequent to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which made home quarantine mandatory for a person in close contact with those who tested positive. For children, however, home quarantine was not limited only to themselves but the involvement of parents, even mothers were required to quarantine. This qualitative study aims to explore and understand mothers’ experience and their related psychosocial issues while caring for their school-aged children who had to home quarantine after coming in close contact with COVID-19 positive individuals in Korea. Methods: Data were collected from October 2020 to January 2021 via in-depth, semi-structured interviews with nine mothers of children who had to home quarantine. Interviews were conducted face-to-face in an independent space near the participant’s home or workplace (n=5) or via online platforms or telephone (n=4). The data were analyzed using thematic analysis through several iterative team meetings.Results: Thematic analysis revealed the following four themes: “Unable to be relieved due to uncertain situations surrounding me,” “Blame and hurt toward me, others, and one another,” “Pulling myself together for my children in my broken daily life,” and “Changes in the meaning of life amid COVID-19.”Conclusion: The narratives show that mothers experienced psychosocial difficulties while caring for their children during home quarantine. It is necessary to reduce the social stigma toward individuals in home quarantine and establish policies to ensure the mothers’ work and family’s compatibility.

“…Previous research has found that rates of violence against children increase as schools close [16]. Violence in children can have a negative physical and psychological impact on children, both in the short and long term [17] - [19]. Online learning itself also has a special effect on children physically, such as being less physically active, having more screen time, sleeping and eating irregularly.…”

virus that has plagued the entire world has made major changes in various aspects of life. The rapid spread of this virus has forced Indonesian government to implement Large-Scale Social Restrictions (in Indonesian known as "Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar") in order to suppress the spread of the virus, which requires various activities to be done through online media, including schools and education system. Currently, schools implement an online learning system that is accessed from their respective homes. However, it turns out that the current system created stress among parents who accompany their children in online learning. The purpose of this study is to describe coping with stress among parents who accompany their children through online learning during COVID-19 pandemic. The method used in this research is in-depth interviews so the information obtained will be rich and more detailed. Participants used in this study are housewives and working moms who are working from home, aged 18-40 years and are accompanying their children who are taking online learning. Also, this study used participants who do not use the services of household assistants. The results shown that the causes of stress in housewives and working moms are slightly different, specifically working moms have difficulty in managing their time. Therefore, parents use both emotion-focused coping strategies and problem-focused coping strategies as an effort to return to a balanced state, where the emotionfocused coping strategies are more frequently used than problem-focused coping strategies.
