“…To analyze the mediation effects, the two-step procedure suggested by Anderson and Gerbing (1988) was adopted: first, the measurement model was tested to evaluate whether the latent variables can be represented by relevant indicators; if the hypothesis of measurement model meets the requirements of fit indices, second, the structural model was constructed adopting the maximum likelihood estimation in AMOS 17.0 program. The following four indices were used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model: (a) Chi-square statistic/degree of freedom ( χ 2 / df ), (b) the standardized root mean square residual (SRMR), (c) the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), and (d) the Comparative Fit Index (CFI) (Mowlaie et al, 2016; Yu et al, 2016). In this study, a model was considered to have a good fit if all the path coefficients were significant at the level of 0.05, SRMR was below 0.08, RMSEA was below 0.08, and CFI was 0.95 or more.…”

This study investigated the relationship among emotional intelligence, gratitude, and subjective well-being in a sample of university students. A total of 365 undergraduates completed the emotional intelligence scale, the gratitude questionnaire, and the subjective well-being measures. The results of the structural equation model showed that emotional intelligence is positively associated with gratitude and subjective well-being, that gratitude is positively associated with subjective well-being, and that gratitude partially mediates the positive relationship between emotional intelligence and subjective well-being. Bootstrap test results also revealed that emotional intelligence has a significant indirect effect on subjective well-being through gratitude.

“…A recent study also indicates that both SOC and self-compassion (SCS) are important factors in how well healthcare professionals have coped with severe stress during the COVID-19 pandemic [40]. Furthermore, research suggests that personal intelligence may play a mediating role between self-compassion and SOC in relation to anxiety [41]. However, whether this is the case in our study cannot be determined at this point.…”

Today, issues related to people’s mental health and well-being have been described as a challenge for society, globally as well as in Sweden. This calls for new approaches to mental health promotion. The aim was to evaluate the adequacy of its content and structure, describing experiences of study circles as a means of supporting participants’ self-care and self-compassion. The overall design is a descriptive QUAL + quan design, where the quantitative and qualitative results are integrated. Five participants participated in a focus group interview, of whom four completed questionnaires. One individual interview was conducted with the study circle leader. Study circles can be an arena for mental health promotion, as learning and sharing of experience contributes to a sense of coherence, as well as self-compassion and a genuine concern for one’s own and others’ well-being, but are not considered an alternative to psychiatric care for those in need of professional services. Study circles can be a possible means to support self-care and thereby promote mental health in the general population and are a valuable contribution to public health. However, in addition to modifications of the content, further research is needed on the qualifications for study circle leaders, as well as the dissemination of study circles.

“…Also, previous studies found that a sense of coherence seems to promote school adaptation by reducing the stress that students face in school (Chu, Khan, Jahn, & Kraemer, 2016). Specifically, individuals with a high sense of coherence have appropriate cognitive and behavioral strategies that enable them to adapt to difficult situations (Mowlaie, Mikaeili, Aghababaei, Ghaffari, & Pouresmali, 2017). Therefore, students with a high sense of coherence can adopt positive strategies for solving the difficulties encountered in school and can better adapt to the school environment.…”

Recent research has shown that internal factors are important predictors of adaptation, but little research has studied the relationship between a sense of coherence and school adaptation. The present study examined the mediating and moderating mechanisms underlying this relationship. A total of 1,072 middle students completed self-report questionnaires assessing their sense of coherence, fathers’ and mothers’ parenting, empathy, and school adaptation. The results indicated that a sense of coherence was positively associated with school adaptation. A mediation analysis indicated that empathy mediated the relationship between a sense of coherence and school adaptation. Furthermore, both the effect of a sense of coherence on school adaptation and the effect of a sense of coherence on empathy were moderated by positive parenting. The present study contributes to a better understanding of how and when a sense of coherence promotes adolescents’ school adaptation.
