“…Supporting the results of this study Sabir et al (2018), showed that resilience is a factor that is positively related to positive affect on emotional well-being and negatively related to the negative effect of emotional well-being. As a psychological factor, resilience can play a role in an individual's ability to maintain a positive sense of wellbeing even during times of stress.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between mindfulness, resilience, and perceived social support with emotional well-being in santri during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study is quantitative. Data collection tools in this study used a mindfulness scale, resilience scale, perceived social support scale and emotional well-being scale. Subjects in this study amounted to 363 of the total population of 965 santri through the purposive accidental sampling technique. The method used in this study is a quantitative method with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) techniques. The results of this study show the R Square value of 0,166 which means that the variables of mindfulness, resilience, and perceived social support have an effect of 16,6% on emotional well-being, while 83.4% is influenced by other variables. So that the proposed hypothesis is accepted, meaning that the higher the mindfulness, resilience, and perceived social support, the higher the perceived emotional well-being.

“…However, even before the pandemic, it has been reported that female residents demonstrated poorer wellness compared with male residents [ 9 ]. This is also found to be true outside of the medical workforce [ 12 ]. It is suggested that the poorer wellness scores in women seem are due to decreased self-compassion and focus on basic needs—which relies on feelings of autonomy, ability and competence, and the connection of professional relationships [ 13 ].…”

Background Acute augmentation of stress and disruption of training, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, may impact resident wellbeing. Objectives We investigated how residents in various specialties in the United States were impacted by COVID-19 on mental wellbeing and resilience levels, and the methodology for coping with the stress incurred. Methods In April 2020, the authors electronically surveyed 200 residency programs of all specialties nationally. The survey utilized two validated questionnaires to assess wellbeing and resilience, while investigating demographics and coping mechanisms. The authors used student t-test and ANOVA to quantitatively analyze the data. Results The sample consisted of 1115 respondents (with an 18% response rate). Male gender & Age >39 years were associated with more favorable average well-being indices (both p<0.01). Regarding resources, institutional support (IS) appeared favorable for resident well-being (IS 2.74, SD1.96 vs NoIS 3.71, SD2.29, p<0.01) & resilience (IS 3.72, SD0.70 vs NoIS 3.53, SD0.73, p = 0.05). The effects of mindfulness practices (MP) were not statistically significant for improvement of wellness (MP 2.87, SD 1.99 vs No MP 2.76, SD 2.15, p = 0.85) or resilience (MP 3.71, SD 0.70 vs No MP 3.72, SD 0.68, p = 0.87). Conclusions Findings highlight the critical importance of resident mental status in cases of augmented stress situations. Institutional support may contribute to promotion of resident wellbeing.

“…For example, an intervention that increased MA in emergency medical personnel has been shown to reduce burnout and improve compassion satisfaction (Ducar et al, 2020). Furthermore, MA has been associated with resilience among doctors in critical care units (Sabir et al, 2018). However, these studies did not evaluate the independent effects of both distress tolerance and MA within the same model.…”

“…A mindfulness-based intervention that improved MA was also associated with reductions in perceived stress and burnout and improvements in compassion satisfaction among emergency medical personnel (Ducar et al, 2020). Moreover, MA has been cross-sectionally associated with greater resilience and positive affect among doctors in critical care units (Sabir et al, 2018). Taken together, results from previous research suggest that MA protects against psychological symptoms and also improves occupational health (e.g., reduces burnout; increases compassion satisfaction) and resilience among first responders and similar helping professionals.…”

Mindful awareness (MA) and distress tolerance are emerging as robust predictors of mental health in populations with high levels of stress and trauma exposure, such as first responders. The combination of both protective factors may have potentiating benefits for mental health. First responders might especially benefit from high levels of MA if they are able to tolerate distressing present-moment experiences as needed. In this study, cross-sectional data were used to test whether distress intolerance (DI) moderated the relationship between MA and mental health. First responders (N = 176) completed an online assessment battery including measures of MA (Mindful Attention Awareness Scale), DI (Distress Intolerance Index), and mental health outcomes (i.e., Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale; Posttraumatic Stress Disorder [PTSD] Checklist for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition [DSM-5]; Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale; abbreviated Maslach Burnout Inventory; compassion satisfaction subscale of the Professional Quality of Life Scale; Satisfaction with Life Scale; and Brief Resilience Scale). Multiple regression models demonstrated that among first responders with higher DI, MA had a stronger association with lower anxiety and depression symptoms. Interactions between MA and DI were not significant for other outcome measures. However, higher MA and lower DI each independently predicted lower stress (lower posttraumatic stress, secondary traumatic stress, and general stress); higher MA independently predicted better occupational health (lower burnout and higher compassion satisfaction); and lower DI independently predicted positive mental health (greater resilience and life satisfaction). Results highlight the independent associations of high MA and low DI with first responders' mental health and underscore the importance of studying of interventions that promote both of these protective factors in first responders. Impact StatementAmong first responders, lower distress intolerance (DI) and higher mindful awareness (MA) both serve as important protective factors for mental health. Interventions that promote MA, while simultaneously reducing DI, could be especially beneficial for first responders and other populations with high levels of occupational stress and trauma exposure.
