摘要:
文章指出,心理僵化是指个体心理和行为不能灵活地适应变化的情境,对生活事件反应刻板,缺乏适应的灵活性。在新冠肺炎疫情期间,大量研究发现心理僵化(psychological inflexibility)是精神健康问题(即抑郁、焦虑和压力症状)的相关因素。然而,现有研究报告的心理僵化与精神健康之间的关系存在较大差异。因此,本文采用三水平元分析方法对心理僵化与精神健康问题之间的关系进行了定量系统综述。结果发现,心理僵化与抑郁(r=0.580)、焦虑(r=0.548)和压力症状(r=0.548)之间均存在较强的显著正相关关系。相比女性而言,男性群体中心理僵化与抑郁症状之间的相关关系更强。心理僵化与压力症状之间的相关大小受到心理僵化的测量量表和压力症状的测量量表的影响。本研究结果表明,心理僵化是抑郁、焦虑和压力症状的重要相关因素之一。本研究的实践意义是,大众可以通过调整认知和行为、降低心理僵化、提高心理灵活性来减少精神健康问题(抑郁、焦虑和压力症状)以在疫情期间保持身心健康。
An increasing number of research has documented the positive associations between psychological inflexibility (PI) and mental health problems (i.e., depressive, anxiety, and stress symptoms) during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the documented associations have been inconsistent. This review thus aimed to quantitatively summarize primary research to gain better estimates of these associations. A systematic literature review was conducted in six databases and three-level meta-analytic models were used to statistically synthesize effect sizes and to examine moderators of the associations between PI and depressive, anxiety, and stress symptoms.A total of 22 studies yielded 63 effect sizes on associations between PI and depressive, anxiety, or stress symptoms. The results of three separate meta-analyses revealed a large and significant association between PI and depressive (r = 0.580, 95 % CI [0.549; 0.775]), anxiety (r = 0.548, 95 % CI [0.468; 0.761]), and stress symptoms (r = 0.548, 95 % CI [0.506; 0.725]). The association between PI and depressive symptoms is stronger for males than for females, and the association between PI and stress symptoms varies by type of measure that primary studies use to assess PI and stress symptoms.PI seems an important risk factor for symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, and should therefore be targeted in interventions addressing mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
