“…Negative coping styles were related to post-traumatic symptoms in the first-time mothers 32 , and related to greater anxiety and depression in accident and emergency senior house officers 33 . Findings from all these studies collectively suggest that education for patients in self-coping strategies may help to mitigate their mental morbidities.…”

Objective: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) -a novel and highly infectious pneumoniahas now spread across China and beyond for over four months. However, its psychological impact on patients is unclear. We aim to examine the prevalence and associated risk factors for psychological morbidities and fatigue in patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection.Methods: Amidst the disease outbreak, 41 out of 105 COVID-19 patients in a local designated hospital in China were successfully assessed using a constellation of psychometric questionnaires to determine their psychological morbidities and fatigue. Several potential biopsychosocial risk factors (including pre-existing disabilities, CT severity score of pneumonia, social support, coping strategies) were assessed through multivariable logistic regression analyses to clarify their association with mental health in patients.Results: 43.9% of 41 patients presented with impaired general mental health, 12.2% had posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, 26.8% had anxiety and/or depression symptoms, and 53.6% had fatigue. We did not find any association between pneumonia severity and psychological morbidities or fatigue in COVID-19 patients. However, high perceived stigmatization was associated with an increased risk of impaired general mental health and high perceived social support was associated with decreased risk. Besides, negative coping inclination was associated with an increased risk of PTSD symptoms; high perceived social support was associated with a decreased risk of anxiety and/or depression symptoms. Conclusions:Psychological morbidities and chronic fatigue are common among COVID-19 patients.Negative coping inclination and being stigmatized are primary risk factors while perceived social support is the main protective factor.

“…Positive coping strategies are bene cial to buffer female depression symptoms, an explanation may be attributed to cognitive reappraisal that may play a more pronounced role in the capacity to regulate positive emotions and positively associated with subjective well-being [55,56]. Women adopted coping strategies of rumination, selfblame, avoidance and reject may increase distress, anxiety or depression in contrast [57][58][59]. Thus, positive coping styles are supposed to be encouraged, as well as affording assistance to ameliorate negative coping styles among women after childbirth.…”

Background: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a major psychological matter following childbirth and may be correlated to detrimental effect for the mother, spouse, infants, and children. The risk factors for PPD among postpartum women have been studied, and yet the mechanisms of these factors are still imprecise. This study aimed to examine the direct and mediating effects of different coping styles in the relationship between the dyadic adjustment and PPD among postpartum women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was administered to 626 delivery women who have been given birth in a tertiary hospital. Sociodemographic and obstetric data were measured by a self-developed questionnaire. The Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were performed to measure the marital adaptation status, coping styles, and depressive symptoms of postpartum women, respectively. Furthermore, the direct and mediating effects analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling. Results: The prevalence of PPD was 22.6% in this study. The standardized path coefficients from the dimensions of dyadic adjustment to PPD (Dyadic consensus: β=﹣0.16, P﹤0.01, Affectional expression: β=﹣0.14, P﹤0.01, Dyadic cohesion: β=﹣0.10, P﹤0.05) achieved significance but Dyadic satisfaction (β=﹣0.06, P=0.19). Positive coping styles played a mediating role in the effect of Dyadic consensus and Dyadic satisfaction on EPDS (95% CI: − 0.036, −0.001, P﹤0.05; 95% CI: − 0.081, −0.008, P﹤0.05, respectively), negative coping style played a mediating role in the effect of Dyadic satisfaction and Dyadic cohesion on EPDS (95% CI: −0.111, −0.025, P﹤0.05; 95% CI: −0.139, −0.044, P=0.001, respectively). Conclusion: Higher level of marital quality diluted the likelihood of PPD directly as well as indirectly through the mediating roles of coping styles. Thusly, ameliorating the quality and adjustment status of marital, employing positive coping style at once could assist to improve maternalpsychological health.

“…On the contrary, the positive association between these strategies and accomplishment suggest an association with a positive feeling. Another study set out a positive relationship between PTSD and emotion-focused strategies ( 35 ) and self-blame ( 36 ). The association between coping strategies and burnout is also congruent with previous studies.…”

et al. 2021

Background: COVID-19 sanitary crisis is associated with emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety and reactional post-traumatic symptoms among healthcare workers. Indeed, healthcare workers were particularly exposed to COVID-19 sanitary crisis. This study aimed to investigate the effects of exposure to COVID-19 sanitary crisis on affective symptoms (anxiety, post-traumatic stress, burnout) among French healthcare workers and the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation strategies (positive re-evaluation and set in perspective) and coping strategies (active coping, planning, instrumental support, emotional support, emotional expression, positive reappraisal, acceptance, denial, blame, humor, religion, distraction, substance use, behavioral disengagement).Method: This cross-sectional survey-based study collected demographic data and mental health measurements from 1,010 volunteers (838 women) who consented online to participate, from March 24 to June 28, 2020, in France. Participants filled out online questionnaires and visual analogic scales that evaluate affective symptoms related to the COVID-19 sanitary crisis, namely symptoms of post-traumatic stress, burnout, emotion regulation abilities, and coping abilities.Results: The majority (57.8%) of the participants presented post-traumatic symptoms. Depending on the sub-dimensions evaluated, a proportion of participants reported moderate (25.9–31.2%) to severe (17.2–40.7%) burnout symptoms. We found a significant effect of the level of exposure to COVID-19 on affective symptoms. Being a woman, having a lower job position and having less experience were associated with higher level of affective symptoms. Moreover, coping strategies had a mediating effect on the relation between stress and burnout, supporting the coping reserve model.Conclusion: Post-traumatic and burnout symptoms were highly prevalent among French healthcare workers at the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis. Exposure to COVID-19 is a determining factor. We can thus promote both coping training and a good environment to limit the emotional consequences of exposure to COVID-19.

Different coping strategies influence the development of PTSD among first-time mothers

Abstract: Cognitive coping styles such as self-blame and rumination, as well as perception of resource loss, were all related to postpartum PTS. Redirecting resources to address postpartum negative coping mechanisms may reduce the overall incidence of full and partial postpartum PTSD.
