Background/Aims: Psychological conditions are increasingly linked with cardiovascular disorders. We aimed to examine the association between psychological distress and hypertension. Methods: We used data from the National Health Interview Survey for 2004-2013. Hypertension was self-reported and the 6-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale was used to assess psychological distress (a score ≥13 indicated distress). We used a logistic regression model to test the assumption that hypertension was associated with psychological distress. Results: Among the study participants completing the survey (n = 288,784), 51% were female; the overall mean age (±SEM) was 35.3 ± 0.02 years and the mean body mass index was 27.5 ± 0.01. In the entire sample, the prevalence of psychological distress was 3.2%. The adjusted odds of reporting hypertension in psychologically distressed individuals was 1.53 (95% CI = 1.31-1.80, p = 0.01). Conclusion: The findings suggest that psychological distress is associated with higher odds of hypertension after adjusting for other risk factors for high blood pressure. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings and to elucidate the mechanisms by which stress increases hypertension risk.

The relationship between facial neuromotor system impairment, disability, and psychological adjustment is not well understood. This study was designed to explore the relation between impairment and disability and the impact of psychological adjustment on the relation for individuals with disorders of the facial neuromotor system. We studied outpatients ( n = 48; mean age, 49.0; SD = 16.3; range, 18 to 84 years) with a facial neuromotor disorder and acute or chronic facial paralysis. Measures of impairment (Facial Motion Assay, House-Brackmann scale, and Facial Grading System), disability (Facial Disability Index, physical and social well-being subscales), and psychological adjustment (Beck Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory) were administered. Bivariate correlations between impairment and disability measures indicated impairment was positively correlated with physical and social disability (r = 0.44, p < 0.01; r = 0.39, p < 0.05, respectively). Stepwise regression analysis to predict disability indicated physical disability was predicted by impairment and the interaction of impairment and psychological distress (R 2 = 0.425; F = 12.57; df = 2, 34; p = 0.002). Psychological distress, and not impairment and the interaction of impairment and distress, was the single predictor of social disability (R 2 = 0.274; F = 13.23; df = 1, 35; p = 0.001). Psychological distress was a moderator of the relation between impairment and physical disability and a mediator of the relation between impairment and social disability for individuals with facial neuromotor disorders. Assessment and interventions targeted for psychological distress in addition to interventions targeted for impairments appear warranted to effectively reduce the disability associated with facial neuromotor disorders.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, people have responded and psychologically coped in different ways. These psychological coping strategies have not been identified and how they relate to the levels of psychological distress largely remain unknown, especially amongst the Nairobi residents. Thus, to explore the association between the levels of distress due to COVID-19 and psychological coping strategies two tools of assessment were used for data collection; the Brief Cope inventory and the COVID-19-related psychological distress for healthy people (CORPD). An ex post facto research design was used to survey 356 Nairobi residents. Data was analysed through the application of descriptive statistics and inferential analysis. The results show that there was no statistical association between problem-focused coping with the psychological distress outcome (r=.222 p value >0.01) and no statistical association between emotion-focused and psychological distress construct (r=.181 p value >0.01). However, there is a statistical correlation between avoidant-focused coping and psychological distress (r=.567 p value <0.01). Thus, residents who engaged in avoidant coping due to the pandemic were more prone to psychological distress, while those who were active problem solvers and emotionally focused had stable psychological health and were less distressed

The COVID-19 pandemic threatens students' psychological well-being. Distress and loneliness are prevalent psychological problems related to mobility restriction and "stay-at-home" instruction. University students are vulnerable to dealing with mental health problems and experience a decrease in psychological well-being during the pandemic. This study was to examine whether loneliness plays a moderating role in relationships between distress and psychological well-being. This research was conducted in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and evaluated how loneliness and distress affect students' well-being since then. A total of 747 students (female = 566, Mage = 20,2 years) participated through the purposive technique. We used three instruments: the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (α=0,926), the UCLA Loneliness Scale (α=0,722), and the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (α=0,932). Our moderation analysis showed that psychological distress significantly decreased psychological well-being (F = 306, p < 0,01). The role of loneliness as a moderator in the relationship between distress and psychological well-being also showed a significant moderation model (F = 161, p < 0,01). Loneliness contributes to a decrease in students' psychological well-being who experience psychological distress.

Pandemi COVID-19 mengancam kesejahteraan psikologis mahasiswa. Distres psikologis dan kesepian merupakan masalah psikologis yang berkaitan dengan pembatasan mobilitas dan instruksi stay at home. Selama masa pandemi, mahasiswa rentan terhadap masalah psikologis dan mengalami penurunan kesejahteraan psikologis. Penelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk menguji apakah kesepian berperan sebagai moderasi dalam hubungan antara distres dan kesejahteraan psikologis mahasiswa. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada konteks pandemi COVID-19 dan berupaya melihat bagaimana pengaruh kesepian dan distres pada kesejahteraan psikologis mahasiswa. Sebanyak 747 mahasiswa (perempuan = 566, Musia = 20.2 tahun) berpartisipasi secara purposive sampling. Tiga instrumen digunakan: Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (α=0,926), UCLA Loneliness Scale (α=0,722), dan Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (α=0,932). Analisis moderasi menunjukkan bahwa distres psikologis memiliki peran signifikan dalam menurunkan kesejahteraan psikologis (F = 306, p < 0,01). Peran kesepian sebagai moderator dalam hubungan antara distres terhadap kesejahteraan psikologis juga menunjukkan model yang signifikan (F = 161, p < 0,01). Kesepian berkontribusi pada penurunan kesejahteraan psikologis pada mahasiswa yang mengalami distres psikologis.

Psychological distress is more common among the prison population than in the general population. This is due to overcrowding, various forms of violence, lack of privacy, lack of meaningful activity, isolation from social networks, insecurity about future prospects and inadequate health services, especially mental health services, in prisons. A qualitative study was carried out in 2019 among sixteen prison inmates representing all types of prison institutions in Sri Lanka with the aim of identifying coping strategies of psychological distress. Among them, eight prison inmates were having psychological distress. Majority were between 27-56 years of age and were male. The main strategies adopted by the prison inmates were engaging in different activities, positive thinking about the future, discussing matters with others, avoiding the situations leading to distress and engaging in religious activities. Mainly, the prison inmates who are not psychologically distressed had used these strategies compared to the prison inmates with psychological distress. None of the prison inmates had identified the importance of counselling in coping the psychological distress. Prison inmates have not been given training or awareness regarding the concept of psychological distress or regarding the coping strategies of psychological distress within the prison institutions. Therefore, it is important to include awareness sessions and practical sessions on psychological distress and coping strategies to the introductory awareness sessions conducted for the prison inmates at the time of entry to a prison institution.

OBJECTIVE: To summarise the available evidence on the prevalence of psychological distress among patients with TB in sub-Saharan Africa, and suggest recommendations for future clinical practice.METHODS: We searched PubMed/Medline, SCOPUS and EMBASE databases for relevant studies. We further searched the reference lists of included studies to include other relevant studies. Cochran´s Q-statistic and the I2 test were used to compute the heterogeneity. The presence of publication bias was assessed by visual inspection of symmetry and Egger´s test.RESULTS: The pooled prevalence estimate of psychological distress among patients with TB in sub-Saharan African countries was 42.3% (95% CI 35.3–49.7). The pooled prevalence of psychological distress was 61.1% in Cameroon, 49.4% in Angola, 47.7% in Ethiopia, 34.0% in Nigeria and 29.3% in South Africa. The pooled prevalence estimate of psychological distress among patients with TB ranged from 40.1% to 43.7% in a leave-one-out-sensitivity analysis. Furthermore, the prevalence of psychological distress was higher in females when compared to males.CONCLUSION: The prevalence of psychological distress among TB patients was high. Therefore, TB programmes should integrate psychiatry services to screen and manage psychologically distressed patients.

Health and social care workers are exposed to varying degrees of stress in their work, which may be reflected in their trajectories of psychological distress during the education program and the first years in the job. The aim of this study was to add to the knowledge concerned with the long-term development of psychological distress in five groups of welfare state service workers in Norway. The study included 1612 individuals. Psychological distress was measured with General Health Questionnaire-12 at four occasions from the start of the education program to 6 years post-graduation (nine year follow-up period). Results of linear mixed models (LMM) for repeated measures showed that psychological distress changed significantly over time in the social work professional groups. At the start of the education program, the lowest and highest levels of psychological distress were found among the child welfare and social workers, respectively. Six years post-graduation, social workers had become less distressed and child welfare workers had become more distressed. No significant change pattern for psychological distress was found among any of the health care professional groups.

This paper investigates general practitioners’ (GP) self-reported practices for psychologically distressed patients with sexually transmissible infections (STI). A cross-sectional postal survey was conducted among a 15% random sample of GP practising in New South Wales. The main outcome measures were self-reported strategies to deal with psychologically distressed STI patients, priority of counselling, and perceived need for training in counselling. The great majority (82%) of GP reported that they extended their consultation time to deal with psychologically distressed patients, whereas 49% reported being likely to refer distressed patients to a counsellor. Just over half (54%) considered counselling to be a high priority in STI care, whereas 49% acknowledged benefits of further training in counselling. Overseas medical graduates were more likely to refer patients in distress to counsellors compared with Australian graduates (odds ratio = 1.80, P = 0.008). Female and metropolitan GP were more likely to consider counselling a high priority in STI care (odds ratio = 1.56, P = 0.038; odds ratio = 1.62, P = 0.028, respectively). GP appreciate the need to deal with psychological distress of STI patients; however, referral to counselling services is not a widespread priority. Further research is needed to examine practitioners’ actual practice in caring for psychological distress among STI patients and barriers to referral for counselling.

Background: People working in the health sector were being labelled, stereotyped, discriminated against, stigmatized, and treated indifferently in the early phase of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. To assess social stigma, perceived stress, and psychological distress among hospital security guards during the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods: A prospective study was conducted among security guards, working in a tertiary care health facility, during the early part of the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were collected using an online Google form. The stigma, perceived stress, and psychological distress were assessed using standardized tools.Results: The mean age of 280 (males: 219, 78.2%) guards enrolled in the study was 37.13±9.1 years. The mean stigma, stress, and psychological distress scores among security guards were 28.76±11.9, 17.64±6.4, and 4.35±2.8, respectively. A significant correlation was found between perceived stigma and psychological distress (r=0.197, p=0.009) and perceived stress and psychological distress (r=0.302, p=0.001). The predictor of perceived stress among the security guards were gender, [β=1.88; (1.13, 2.63), p=0.001] and loss of job by the family member during pandemic [β=2.8 (4.56, 1.03), p=0.001], similarly the predictors of psychological distress were gender and COVID positive status [β=0.06 (0.10, 0.33), p=0.001].Conclusions: The majority of the security guards had moderate to high perceived social stigma, and moderate level stress during the COVID-19 Pandemic and a few being psychologically distressed requiring referral to experts.

Abstract Background Spousal loss, common in older age, has been linked to negative mental health outcomes and well-being, yet the mechanisms linking spousal loss and mental health are still unclear. Objective To investigate whether physical activity, social support, and gender modify the psychological distress effects of marital loss among community-dwelling older persons in Ghana. Methods Data from a 2016/2017 Ageing, Health, Psychological Well-being, and Health-seeking Behavior Study (N = 1,200) were examined. OLS regression models examined associations between spousal loss and psychological distress outcomes and interaction terms. Results Spousal loss (widowhood and divorce/separation) was associated with psychological distress (measured by the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale [KPDS-10]) for the full sample (β = .798, p < .001), women (β = .831, p < .001) and for men (β = .533, p < .05). After adjusting for potential confounders, the associations between spousal loss and psychological distress persisted for the full sample (β = .727, p < .001) and females only (β = .730, p < .001). In particular, when experiencing spousal loss, those with meaningful social support (β = −.856, p < .005) and engaged in physical activity (β = −.258, p < .001) were less likely to be psychologically distressed. Conclusions Spousal loss precipitates an independent risk of psychological distress in older age particularly among women, but social support and physical activity engagements moderate the relationship. These findings support the premise that providing opportunities to improve social support and regular physical activity may buffer the effects of psychological distress among older persons experiencing spousal loss. Providing support for older adults in times of divorce and widowhood, and working towards changes in social attitudes towards divorce are important considerations.

Introduction: Psychological wellbeing has been linked to wellness in all facets of life. However, this may be altered when man becomes distressed because of some factors influencing man’s stable psychological wellness. Hence, such conditions need to be moderated. Objective: The primary objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of self-management therapy in the management of psychological distress among adolescents with hearing loss. Methods: This study is quasi experimental pre-test-post- test design to investigate the effectiveness of self-management therapy in the management of psychological distress using a sample of 39 adolescents with hearing loss purposively selected through the Kesler Psychological Distress Scale with index scores of 19 and above. Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (Core-10) and Rosenberg Self-esteem Rating Scale were used for both pre and post- test. Results: The results revealed that there was a significant main effect of treatment (self-management therapy) on management of psychological distress among adolescents; there was a significant main effect of onset of hearing loss on participants’ management of psychological distress and there was a significant interaction effect of onset of hearing loss and self-esteem on participants’ management of psychological distress. Conclusion: Self- management therapy proved effective in the management of psychological distress among adolescents with hearing loss; hence the focus should be on the use of self-management therapy to manage distressed conditions among adolescents with hearing loss.

SynopsisThirty-eight subjects identified in a large community survey were found to attribute their fatigue to ‘myalgic encephalomyelitis’ (ME). They were matched randomly to two other groups of subjects who attributed their fatigue to either psychological or social factors. All three groups were followed up 18 months later and were asked to complete a series of questionnaires that examined fatigue, psychological distress, number of symptoms, attributional style and levels of disability. At onset the ‘ME’ group were found to be more fatigued, had been tired for longer but were less psychologically distressed than the other two groups. At follow-up the ‘ME’ group were more handicapped in relation to home, work, social and private leisure activities, even when controlling for both duration of fatigue and fatigue at time 1, but were less psychologically distressed. The relationships between psychological distress, specific illness attributions, attributional style and their effect on the experience of illness and its prognosis are discussed. Attributing fatigue to social reasons appears to be most protective.

Background. The outbreak of COVID-19 and subsequent lockdown worldwide have shown a psychological impact among healthcare workers. However, data on the psychological impact among community pharmacists are lacking in the Nepalese context. Aim. This study aimed to assess the psychological distress among community pharmacists during COVID-19 pandemic. Settings and Design. A cross-sectional analytical design was adopted to study the psychological distress of pharmacists working in community pharmacies in Bharatpur. Materials and Methods. Purposive sampling method was used to select 172 community pharmacists. The COVID-19 peritraumatic distress index (CPDI) questionnaire adapted from the Shanghai Mental Health Centre was used to measure psychological distress. Statistical Analysis. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, percentage) and inferential statistics (chi-square and logistic regression) were used. Results. Out of 172 respondents, 77.9% were severely distressed while 22.1% were mild to moderately distressed due to COVID-19 pandemic. Mean age of the respondents was 27.81 ± 6.35 years. Logistic regression revealed that having education of bachelor and above (AOR = 4.489, 95% CI: 1.747, 11.539), 8 or more working hours (AOR = 7.633, 95% CI: 2.729, 21.352), being unsatisfied with the job (AOR = 11.524, 95% CI: 3.574, 37.158), and having experience of more than 3 years (AOR = 2.857, 95% CI: 1.060, 7.702) were found significantly linked to severe psychological distress among community pharmacists in Bharatpur. Conclusion. All respondents had suffered from some degree of psychological distress due to the pandemic. Our findings reveal the need for psychological intervention to alleviate psychological distress among pharmacists.

OBJECTIVETo determine the relationship between psychological distresses, coping style and emotional well-being among caregivers of patients with schizophrenia, to determine the role of coping style as a mediator in the relationship between the psychological distress and emotional well-being, to determine the gender as a moderator in between psychological distress and emotional well-being.STUDY DESIGNCross sectional research design.PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDYThe data was collected from both government and private hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan from May 2021 to July 2021. SUBJECTS AND METHODSParticipants were 75 that were educated 2(27%), uneducated 73(97.4%), married 37(49.3%) and unmarried 38(50.7%) adult caregivers of schizophrenic patients. Kessler’s scale, Brief Cope Inventory and Psychological well-being scale along with demographic sheet were used for the collection of data. RESULTSResults revealed that there is a positive significant relationship between psychological distress and coping styles(r=.32**, p<.05) whereas emotional well-being is negatively correlated with coping style (r=-.33**, p<.05) and non-significant relationship with psychological distress (p>0.05) in schizophrenic caregivers. Gender is moderating between psychological distress and emotional well-being. Coping style is not mediating between psychological distress and emotional well-being among caregivers of schizophrenia. CONCLUSIONIt is concluded that coping style is positively correlated with psychological distress but emotional well-being is negatively correlated with coping style and non-significant relation with psychological distress. There is a difference in experiencing psychological distress and emotional well-being gender wise. Psychological distress has a non-significant effect on emotional well-being through direct or indirect pathways and coping style is not mediating between them.

Serta terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara optimisme dengan distres psikologis yaitu stres, kecemasan dan depresi pada perawat selama pandemi Covid-19 dengan nilai p= <0,05. Disarankan pada pihak manajemen keperawatan di rumah sakit perlu meningkatkan program manajemen stres bagi tenaga keperawatan, sehingga dapat meminimalisir adanya distres psikologis yang diterima perawat.Kata Kunci: distres psikologis; optimisme; ruang bertugas OPTIMISM AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTRESS IN NURSES DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ABSTRACT The psychological impact that is encountered during the Covid-19 pandemic is the psychological distress experienced by health workers, especially nurse. Psychological distress has harmful effects on the individual who experiences it, such as unpleasant or excessive demands that drain the individual's energy, making it easier for the individual to get sick. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between department and optimism with psychological distress including perceived stress, anxiety and depression in nurses and to determine the distress that nurses felt during the Covid-19 pandemic at the Pulmonology Hospital West Sumatera in 2020. The type of study was a descriptive correlative, with a population of 35 nurses. Optimization was measured using the Life Orientation Test-Revised (LOT-R) questionnaire, perceived stress was measured by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) questionnaire, anxiety was measured using the General Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) questionnaire, and depression was measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). The results showed that there is a significant relationship between department and psychological distress, perceived stress, anxiety and depression in nurses during the Covid-19 pandemic with a value of p <0.05. And there is a significant relationship between optimism and psychological distress, perceived stress, anxiety and depression in nurses during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is suggested that the nursing management at the hospital needs to increase the stress management program for nursing personnel, so that it can minimize the psychological distress received by nurses.Keywords: department; optimism; psychological distress

When fathers live away from their children, taking an active paternal role may become challenging and can add to paternal psychological distress. In a large ( N = 3,980) diverse cohort, we found that nonresident fathers are more likely to be psychologically distressed than resident fathers (27.4% vs. 15.2%) and more likely to report wanting a change in the level of involvement they have in their child’s life (76.6% vs. 58.1%). Nonresident fathers were more likely to suffer economic hardship, unemployment, poor health, and have a depression and anxiety history ( ps < .001). However, the factors associated with increased psychological distress were largely the same across resident and nonresident fathers. The biggest stressors were managing work alongside family responsibilities and commitments, arguments with the partner, prior history of depression, and economic hardship or deprivation. Fathers’ actual levels of involvement and desired levels of involvement with their child did not predict their psychological distress.

Examining the influence of cultural factors on psychological distress, relative to other (e.g. social and psychological) influences, has been difficult due to the incomplete development of a theory of culture that leads to the reliable and valid measurement of cultural factors in such a way that these can be incorporated into multivariate models. In this paper we present both such a theory and such a methodology, and apply it to the study of the community distribution of psychological distress in an urban area in Brazil. In this theory and method, culture is conceptualized as consisting of shared cultural models that are imperfectly realized in mundane behaviors. The link of cultural model and individual behavior is referred to as "cultural consonance". Here we show that cultural consonance in two different domains is associated with psychological stress, independently from covariates and possible confounding variables. Implications of the results for future research are also discussed.

Psychological distress is a harmful condition that can affect individuals directly or indirectly over time and affect physical health conditions and mental conditions. This study aims to determine the description of psychological distress in converts. This type of research is qualitative research with a phenomenological model and data collection methods carried out by in-depth interviews and documentation. The informants of this study were three people, one man was 59 years old and had converted to Islam for 36 years and two women, the first was 40 years old and had converted to Islam for 18 years, the second was 66 years old and had converted to Islam for 41 years. The results of this study indicate that the religious conversion experienced by the informant has a relationship with psychological distress, where the process follows the interpersonal and situational factors shared by the informant. The informant decides to convert to Islam. The interpersonal factors experienced by the informants occurred in the second stage of religious conversion, namely, the phase of unease. In this phase, religious teachings are believed to bring peace no longer or cause psychological distress to him. Informants make comparisons from the previous instructions to the teachings of Islam. The peak was the situational factor he experienced, namely the stage of religious conversion (mualaf) because the teachings in Islam are considered the right way and are more capable of bringing life satisfaction.

Background: Limited evidence is available on the psychological distress among patients hospitalized with COVID -19. We assessed the incidence of psychological distress, posttraumatic symptoms and substance use among patients hospitalized with COVID-19; and perceived stress, coping, and social support experienced by distressed and non-distressed patients and the predictors of psychological distress. Methods: Ours was a hospital-based cross-sectional study, conducted in a Union Territory of India. Patients were assessed (August – September, 2020) at the time of admission (within two days) with standardized instruments (N=250). Results: More than 19 percent of respondents had experienced significant psychological distress (probable cases) and nearly 9% reported post-traumatic stress symptoms. The cases and non-cases differ in terms of active coping (5.51±0.87 versus 5.06±1.06; t=3.10, p<0.01), emotional support (5.21±0.87 versus 4.86±0.79; t=2.57, p<0.01), behavioural disengagement (5.18±0.92 versus 4.55±1.15; t=3.56, p<0.001), venting (5.42±0.96 versus 4.80±1.24; t=3.30, p<0.01), acceptance (5.75±1.24 versus 5.29±1.50; t=2.23, p<0.05), religion (5.43±1.41 versus 6.06±1.46; t=-2.76, p<0.01) and self-blame (5.65±1.00 versus 4.82±1.39; t=3.95, p<0.001). Symptoms of post-traumatic stress (OR: 2.058; 95% CI: 1.49-2.84) was the only significant predictor of the psychological distress. Conclusions: Nearly one in five hospitalized patients with COVID-19 experience psychological distress. Screening and treatment for trauma and psychological distress should be an integral component of care for patients with COVID-19.

Background. Like individuals exposed to other life stressors, patients undergoing organ transplantation typically show elevated psychological distress initially post-transplant, with improvement thereafter. However, this ‘average’ pattern may conceal subgroups with differing profiles of psychological response. We sought to identify unique temporal distress profiles, and their predictors, after heart transplantation.Method. A total of 156 transplant recipients (refusal rate, 6%) were enrolled and assessed at 2, 7, 12, 36, and 42 months post-transplant. Cluster analysis was used to identify distinct distress profiles over time. Multivariate analyses examined health and psychosocial predictors of the profiles.Results. Five groups were identified, with either: (a) low distress at all time-points (45% of the sample), (b) high, clinically significant distress at all times (21%), (c) high distress over several years with low distress only at final assessment (12%), (d) high distress during the first several months with decline thereafter (6%), or (e) fluctuating distress levels (16%). Patients showing any distress (versus none) were more likely to have a pre-transplant psychiatric history, poorer social supports and more physical impairment early post-transplant, and continued physical impairment over time. Among distressed patients, those with persistent (versus declining) distress were most likely to be female, waited more briefly for transplant, and were most physically impaired early post-transplant. While persistently distressed patients had better social supports early post-transplant, these supports subsequently worsened.Conclusions. Individuals differ in whether and when psychological distress abates after heart transplantation. Findings regarding distress profiles and their predictors may inform the design of interventions to address each transplant recipient's unique psychological needs.

Abstract. An increase in psychological distress is one of the side effects caused by physical distancing. Social support has the greatest influence on psychological distress. Perceived social support is a form of support that does not have to involve real support and is more subjective in nature, depending on how individuals perceive the support provided by others. A person's perception of the existence of support from social support sources is negatively related to psychological distress. This study aims to determine the effect of perceived social support from family, friends, and significant others on psychological distress in high school adolescents in West Java during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research uses causality method with quantitative approach. Measurements were made using measuring instruments that have been adapted to the Indonesian context, namely the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The research sample was 680 high school teenagers in West Java who were selected through convenience sampling. The data analysis technique used linear regression test. The result of this study is that the family dimension significantly has the greatest influence (β=-.593; p<.05; R2=.126). Women had a significantly higher score than men on psychological distress (M=28.21; SD=7.937). Statistically, perceived social support had a significant effect on psychological distress (β=-.252; p<.05). The coefficient of determination for R2 is 7.5%.
Abstrak. Peningkatan distres psikologis salah satu efek samping yang ditimbulkan akibat adanya physical distancing. Dukungan sosial memiliki pengaruh terbesar terhadap distres psikologis. Dukungan sosial yang dirasakan (perceived social support) merupakan bentuk dukungan yang tidak harus melibatkan adanya dukungan secara nyata dan lebih bersifat subjektif, tergantung bagaimana individu mempersepsikan dukungan yang diberikan oleh orang lain. Persepsi seseorang mengenai adanya dukungan dari sumber dukungan sosial berhubungan negatif dengan psychological distress. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh perceived social support dari family, friends, dan significant other terhadap psychological distress pada remaja SMA di Jawa Barat pada masa pandemi COVID-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kausalitas dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Pengukuran dilakukan dengan menggunakan alat ukur yang telah di adaptasi ke dalam konteks Indonesia, yaitu Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) dan Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS).

This research aimed at determining the relationship of internet gaming with emotional intelligence, psychological distress, and academic performance among university students; it also investigated whether playing timings could influence psychological distress and emotional intelligence. A sample comprising 315 university students (boys = 161, girls = 154) was collected. Internet Gaming Disorder Test (Pontes, Kiraly, Demetrovics, & Griffiths, 2014), Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (Wong & Law, 2002) and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995) were used. Academic performance was measured through grades obtained during last two semesters. Results revealed internet gaming had significant positive relationship with psychological distress, whereas it was linked to emotional intelligence and academic performance negatively. Students who played more after mid-night were psychologically more distressed than those who played during morning, evening, or early night time. Outcomes of this research will be beneficial in developing effective awareness programs for the individuals who are highly involved in internet gaming to understand its negative consequences.

ABSTRACTA sample of frail older adults (65 years and over) living at home or institutionalized (n = 664) with a significant functional limitation was used to document predisposing and facilitating factors of severe psychological distress among frail elderly adults. Our results indicated that 48.2 per cent of the older adults living at home presented severe psychological distress symptoms, compared to 34.3 per cent of elderly adults living in institutions. The probability of reporting a severe level of psychological distress was associated with the respondents' social support, cognitive and functional status. When the respondents' cognitive and functional status were controlled, no evidence of a significant association was found between the respondents' age, gender, marital status, education or income and the level of their psychological distress symptoms. Our results showed that 77.9 per cent of the respondents with severe psychological distress symptoms were still severely distressed 12 months after their first interview. Findings suggest that severe psychological distress represents an important challenge for practitioners in gerontology and geriatrics. It is suggested that other studies focusing on the consequences of psychological distress on older adults' quality of life, functional decline, institutionalization and mortality may help document the gravity of this symptomatology in the elderly population.

Objective: Based upon three models of etiology and adjustment in CLBP, predictions were made about the variables that were expected to differentiate organic and nonorganic patients, including: psychological distress (anxiety, depression, stress, alienation), pain condition and treatment, and general health. Method: Patients from a medical school orthopedic clinic with an organic ( N = 58) or a nonorganic ( N = 33) diagnosis for chronic low back pain (CLBP) were compared on medical, psychological and sociodemographic variables. Results: Nonorganic patients exhibited greater emotional distress, contrary to the biogenic model, and nonorganic patients did not exhibit more somatic complaints, contrary to the psychogenic model. Both patterns were consistent with the sociogenic model; nonorganic patients were more distressed, but not because of a greater tendency to somatize. Moreover, modeling was not supported as an explanation of the pain and distress among these patients. Conclusions: Social anomie may explain why patients without a medically diagnosable cause for their pain are more psychologically distressed.

Although Spiritual Intelligence enjoys recent recognition in research as a human potential to live a meaningful and fulfilled life even amid uncertainties and distress, no known study has been done among young people especially seminarians in Nigeria. Thus, this study uses the correlational research design to explore the relationship between spiritual intelligence and psychological distress among the seminarians of the Catholic Diocese of Aba, Nigeria. The objectives are to determine the seminarians’ levels of spiritual intelligence, their levels of psychological distress, and the relationship between spiritual intelligence and psychological distress among them. Forty-nine (49) major seminarians from the Catholic Diocese of Aba were recruited using the census method. Data collection was done through questionnaires delivered to each participant on google forms. Two standardised instruments – the Integrated Spiritual Intelligence Scale (ISIS-45) and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess the participants’ spiritual intelligence and psychological distress respectively. SPSS (version 26) aided the data analysis. The results showed that the seminarians had an average spiritual intelligence level (n = 49, M = 72.1%, SD = .42) and an average psychological distress level (n = 49, M = 55.8%, SD = 6.46). The Pearson correlation showed a weak positive relationship between spiritual intelligence and psychological distress among the participants. There was no significant relationship between spiritual intelligence and psychological distress among the seminarians of the Catholic Diocese of Aba (r = .066, p = .653). The findings provide an increased understanding of the relationship between spiritual intelligence and psychological distress among the population studied. The study suggests the need for more investigation into the value of spiritual intelligence and the necessity of its improvement for seminarians as young people and as future leaders who will need to have the necessary resources to guide others in their wellbeing in a distressed country like Nigeria.

Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study using an online self-administered questionnaire gathering sociodemographic information and using the Kessler scale, which measures psychological distress. A total of 1,058 people agreed to participate in the study and completed the questionnaire.
Results: The study findings showed that 48.6% (n=514) of the study’s respondents were psychologically distressed, i.e. either in the high or very high distress category. Significantly higher ratings of psychological distress were observed among female participants, younger adults, those who self-reported poor health status, single persons, students, individuals with caring responsibilities and those who have no access to a private outdoor space. This distress was also found among those who have been in close or indirect contact with an individual with confirmed COVID-19 infection, P< 0.05.
Conclusion: Psychological distress has been widely prevalent among the general public in Saudi Arabia during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Saudi government and the health authorities should pay special attention to the highly susceptible population and implement effective strategies to preserve and improve the mental health and wellbeing of these individuals.

AbstractObjectiveTo determine prevalence and factors associated with psychological distress among nurses caring for war victims in Sri Lanka.MethodsDescriptive, cross-sectional study design was used to collect data from 241 nurses from 2 hospitals with stratified random sampling according to workstation. Self-administered 30-item General Health Questionnaire was used to detect psychological distress.ResultsThe prevalence of psychological distress was 21%. Female sex was found to be the most significant predictor of psychological distress among nurses. Factors, such as being married, having children, or both, were found to be protective. High exposure to war victims, measured by the frequency with which a nurse tended to those patients, also resulted in less psychological distress.ConclusionsThe prevalence of psychological distress is higheramong nurses in this study compared with that among the general population. Brief screening instruments, such as the General Health Questionnaire, can be used to identify individuals at risk for psychological distress. Results suggest that the presence of a social support network helped to psychologically buffer these nurses. Findings also imply the importance of promoting positive attitudes and beneficial stress (eustress) to complement a well-developed focus on distress prevention.

Internalized homonegativity has been well documented to associate with psychological distress. Previous studies have found various factors which mediated the relationship between the two variables. The current study aimed to explore other factor which mediates the two variables, namely self-compassion. Participants were lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals who recruited via online survey (N = 55). Data was analyzed using few steps of regression analysis. The results show that internalized homonegativity is not related to psychological distres and self-compassion in current sample. Self-compassion is found to be significantly predict psychological distress (F(1,53) = 25,140, p < 0,01; R2 = 0,322), which affirms previous findings. Results imply that lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals can exercise self-compassion to cope with psychological distress arising from their minority status.

Purpose Psychological distress and psychiatric symptoms are prevalent among people with hearing loss or other audiological conditions, but psychological interventions for these groups are rare. This article describes the study protocol for a randomized controlled trial for evaluating the effect of a psychological treatment delivered over the Internet for individuals with hearing problems and concurrent psychological distress. Method Participants who are significantly distressed will be randomized to either an 8-week Internet-delivered acceptance-based cognitive behavioral therapy (i.e., acceptance and commitment therapy [ACT]), or wait-list control. We aim to include measures of distress associated with hearing difficulties, anxiety, and depression. In addition, we aim to measure acceptance associated with hearing difficulties as well as quality of life. Conclusion The results of the trial may further our understanding of how to best treat people who present problems with both psychological distress and hearing in using the Internet.
