Abstract

Background: Although it is known that social support can promote post-traumatic growth (PTG) of trauma survivors, the specific mechanism is still unclear in the case of government policy intervention and large-scale population infection with COVID-19.

Methods: Through snowballing sampling from January 7 to February 13, 2023, we collected data from 1381 patients tested positive for COVID-19, excluding asymptomatic or undiagnosed cases. Participants completed effective scales measuring social support, PTG, and proactive coping behaviors. Multiple linear regression and mediation analysis were used to process the data.

Results: Social support significantly predicted PTG (β=0.26, p<0.001), with proactive coping mediating 44.7% of this effect. About 32.66% of COVID-19 patients reported a medium-to-high level of PTG.

Conclusion: This study uniquely captures the PTG dynamics during China's sudden policy transition, demonstrating the positive role of social support in PTG and emphasizing that proactive response is a key intervention goal for public health crises.

社会支持对COVID-19患者创伤后成长的影响：一项中介分析研究

背景：虽然已知社会支持可以促进创伤幸存者的创伤后成长（PTG），但在政府政策干预和大规模人群感染COVID-19的情况下，其具体机制尚不清楚。方法：2023年1月7日至2月13日，采用滚雪球抽样的方法，收集1381例新冠肺炎检测阳性患者的数据，排除无症状或未确诊的病例。参与者完成了测量社会支持、焦虑焦虑和积极应对行为的有效量表。采用多元线性回归和中介分析对数据进行处理。结论：本研究独特地捕捉到了中国政策突发性转变过程中PTG的动态变化，证明了社会支持在PTG中的积极作用，强调了积极应对是公共卫生危机的关键干预目标。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
