“…While constructs were examined at various phases, CMB remains a viable option. As a result, the objective of this investigation was to overcome potential CMB issues and analyze the novelty of models using CFA (Khan et al, 2022). Initially, the researchers ran CFA with all model components such as migratory stress, perceived COVID-19 (PC-19) threat, psychological distress, resilience, PGD, and death anxiety.…”

Using coping theory, this research creates and evaluates a process model to investigate the sequential mediating roles of perceived Covid-19 threat (PC-19 threat) and death anxiety on the relationships between migration stress, psychological distress, and prolonged grief disorder (PGD) among Afghan refugees who migrated to Pakistan and China after the Afghan war. The proposed model for Study 1 proved fully supported and demonstrated that migration stress has significant positive association with perceived psychological distress (β = 0.39, p < .001). Furthermore, significant relationship between migration stress and psychological distress is significantly mediated first by PC-19 threat and then significantly by death anxiety. Study 2, incorporated time-lag datasets technique to investigate the sequential moderating effect of resistance. Additionally, study 2 found that migratory stress was strongly associated with PGD (β = 0.21, p < .01). It was also articulated that resilience significantly moderated migration stress’s sequential indirect effect on psychological distress and PGD. The implications and future objectives of the study have been highlighted.

“… 20 21 Critically, our findings extend occupation-specific and hand hygiene-specific findings during the COVID-19 pandemic, including associations between burnout symptoms and (1) reduced hand hygiene among healthcare workers in China, 34 (2) reduced personal protective equipment adherence and hand hygiene among healthcare workers in Malaysia 35 and (3) reduced handwashing behaviours among restaurant kitchen chefs in China. 36 Interestingly, a moderation analysis conducted on frontline healthcare professionals in Pakistan found that high levels of handwashing buffered the negative influence of burnout on mental health, 37 identifying another relation that merits attention.…”

Association between burnout and adherence with mask usage and additional COVID-19 prevention behaviours: findings from a large-scale, demographically representative survey of US adults

ObjectivesStudies have found associations between occupational burnout symptoms and reduced engagement with healthy behaviours. We sought to characterise demographic, employment and sleep characteristics associated with occupational burnout symptoms, and to evaluate their relationships with adherence to COVID-19 prevention behaviours (mask usage, hand hygiene, avoiding gatherings, physical distancing, obtaining COVID-19 tests if potentially infected).MethodsDuring December 2020, surveys were administered cross-sectionally to 5208 US adults (response rate=65.8%). Quota sampling and survey weighting were employed to improve sample representativeness of sex, age and race and ethnicity. Among 3026 employed respondents, logistic regression models examined associations between burnout symptoms and demographic, employment and sleep characteristics. Similar models were conducted to estimate associations between burnout and non-adherence with COVID-19 prevention behaviours.ResultsWomen, younger adults, unpaid caregivers, those working more on-site versus remotely and those with insufficient or impaired sleep had higher odds of occupational burnout symptoms. Burnout symptoms were associated with less frequent mask usage (adjusted odds ratio (aOR)=1.7, 95% CI 1.3–2.1), hand hygiene (aOR=2.1, 95% CI 1.7–2.7), physical distancing (aOR=1.3, 95% CI 1.1–1.6), avoiding gatherings (aOR=1.4, 95% CI 1.1–1.7) and obtaining COVID-19 tests (aOR=1.4, 95% CI 1.1–1.8).ConclusionsDisparities in occupational burnout symptoms exist by gender, age, caregiving, employment and sleep health. Employees experiencing occupational burnout symptoms might exhibit reduced adherence with COVID-19 prevention behaviours. Employers can support employee health by addressing the psychological syndrome of occupational burnout.

Background and Objective Anxiety influences job burnout and health. This study aimed to establish a nomogram to predict the anxiety status of medical staff during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods A total of 600 medical members were randomized 7:3 and divided into training and validation sets. The data was collected using a questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis and Akaike information criterion (AIC) were applied to investigate the risk factors for anxiety. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated to establish a nomogram. Results Participation time (OR=44.28, 95% CI=13.13~149.32), rest time (OR=38.50, 95% CI=10.43~142.19), epidemic prevention area (OR=10.16, 95% CI=3.51~29.40), epidemic prevention equipment (OR=15.24, 95% CI=5.73~40.55), family support (OR=9.63, 95% CI=3.55~26.11), colleague infection (OR=6.25, 95% CI=2.18~19.11), and gender (OR=3.30, 95% CI=1.15~9.47) were the independent risk factors ( P <0.05) for anxiety in medical staff. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the training and validation sets were 0.987 and 0.946, respectively. The decision curve’s net benefit shows the nomogram’s clinical utility. Conclusion The nomogram established in this study exhibited an excellent ability to predict anxiety status with sufficient discriminatory power and calibration. Our findings provide a protocol for predicting and identifying anxiety status in medical staff during the COVID-19 pandemic.
