Abstract

Background/objectives: Trait mindfulness (TM) may protect against post-trauma mental health ailments and related impairment. Few studies have evaluated this association in the context of collective traumas using representative samples or longitudinal designs.

Design/method: We explored relationships between TM and collective trauma-related outcomes in a prospective, representative, probability-based sample of 1846 U.S. Gulf Coast residents repeatedly exposed to catastrophic hurricanes, assessed twice during the COVID-19 outbreak (Wave 1: 5/14/20-5/27/20; Wave 2: 12/21/21-1/11/22). Generalized estimating equations examined longitudinal relationships between TM, COVID-19-related fear/worry, hurricane-related fear/worry, global distress, and functional impairment; ordinary least squares regression analyses examined the cross-sectional association between TM and COVID-19-related posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) at Wave 1. Event-related stressor exposure was explored as a moderator.

Results: In covariate-adjusted models including pre-event mental health ailments and demographics, TM was negatively associated with COVID-19-related fear/worry, hurricane-related fear/worry, global distress, and functional impairment over time; in cross-sectional analyses, TM was negatively associated with COVID-19-related PTSS. TM moderated the relationship between COVID-19 secondary stressor exposure (e.g., lost job/wages) and both global distress and functional impairment over time.

Conclusions: Results suggest TM may buffer adverse psychosocial outcomes following collective trauma, with some evidence TM may protect against negative effects of secondary stressor exposure.

集体创伤后正念与心理健康之间的关系：一项基于概率的纵向、代表性调查结果。

背景/目的：特质正念（TM）可以预防创伤后的心理健康疾病和相关损伤。很少有研究使用代表性样本或纵向设计在集体创伤的背景下评估这种关联。设计/方法：我们在新冠肺炎爆发期间对1846名反复暴露于灾难性飓风中的美国墨西哥湾沿岸居民进行了两次评估（第1波：5/14/20-5/27/20；第2波：12/21/21-1/11/22），对TM与集体创伤相关结果之间的关系进行了研究。广义估计方程检验了TM、COVID-19相关恐惧/担忧、匆忙相关恐惧/担心、全球痛苦和功能损害之间的纵向关系；普通最小二乘回归分析检验了TM与第1波COVID-19相关的创伤后应激症状（PTSS）之间的横断面关联。与事件相关的压力源暴露被探索为调节因素。结果：在包括事件前心理健康疾病和人口统计在内的协变量调整模型中，TM与COVID-19相关的恐惧/担忧、匆忙相关的恐惧或担忧、全球痛苦和随时间推移的功能损害呈负相关；在横断面分析中，TM与COVID-19相关的PTSS呈负相关。TM调节了新冠肺炎二次应激源暴露（如失去工作/工资）与全球痛苦和功能损害之间的关系。结论：研究结果表明，TM可以缓冲集体创伤后的不良心理社会结果，一些证据表明TM可以防止二次应激源暴露的负面影响。

期刊介绍： This journal provides a forum for scientific, theoretically important, and clinically significant research reports and conceptual contributions. It deals with experimental and field studies on anxiety dimensions and stress and coping processes, but also with related topics such as the antecedents and consequences of stress and emotion. We also encourage submissions contributing to the understanding of the relationship between psychological and physiological processes, specific for stress and anxiety. Manuscripts should report novel findings that are of interest to an international readership. While the journal is open to a diversity of articles.
