Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the current status of women's perception of social support levels, psychological resilience, anxiety, and depression levels during IVF-ET, as well as investigate the influence of perceived social support and psychological resilience on the anxiety and depression levels of women undergoing IVF-ET and the mediating role of psychological resilience in this process.
Methods: In this study, a convenience sampling method was used to administer a questionnaire survey among 433 women undergoing IVF-ET. Then, multivariate linear regression models were applied to identify factors influencing anxiety and depression. Lastly, mediation effect analysis was conducted to explore the mediating role of psychological resilience.
Results: The incidence of anxiety and depression was 42% and 46.4%, respectively. The mean score of the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) indicated a high to moderate level of support, while the mean score of the Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) suggested moderate psychological resilience. Perceived social support was positively correlated with psychological resilience, and both were negatively correlated with anxiety and depression. Perceived social support and psychological resilience were identified as influencing factors of anxiety and depression (P < 0.001). Moreover, there was a partial mediating effect of psychological resilience between perceived social support and both anxiety and depression (P < 0.01).
Conclusions: These results highlight the need for healthcare providers to assess patients' levels of psychological resilience and perceived social support when developing mental health interventions in order to mitigate the risk of anxiety and depression and concomitantly enhance fertility outcomes.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics publishes cellular, molecular, genetic, and epigenetic discoveries advancing our understanding of the biology and underlying mechanisms from gametogenesis to offspring health. Special emphasis is placed on the practice and evolution of assisted reproduction technologies (ARTs) with reference to the diagnosis and management of diseases affecting fertility. Our goal is to educate our readership in the translation of basic and clinical discoveries made from human or relevant animal models to the safe and efficacious practice of human ARTs. The scientific rigor and ethical standards embraced by the JARG editorial team ensures a broad international base of expertise guiding the marriage of contemporary clinical research paradigms with basic science discovery. JARG publishes original papers, minireviews, case reports, and opinion pieces often combined into special topic issues that will educate clinicians and scientists with interests in the mechanisms of human development that bear on the treatment of infertility and emerging innovations in human ARTs. The guiding principles of male and female reproductive health impacting pre- and post-conceptional viability and developmental potential are emphasized within the purview of human reproductive health in current and future generations of our species.
The journal is published in cooperation with the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, an organization of more than 8,000 physicians, researchers, nurses, technicians and other professionals dedicated to advancing knowledge and expertise in reproductive biology.
