{"title":"Resilience during covid-19 pandemic: A population-based study in Iran","authors":"Ali Montazeri, F. Maftoon, Mansoureh Farhangnia, Mehdi Rafiei Bahabadi, Fatemeh Naghizadeh moghari","doi":"10.52547/payesh.21.4.429","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.52547/payesh.21.4.429","url":null,"abstract":"Objective(s): Resilience could result in individuals’ stability and subsequently could contribute to one’s mental health during difficult situations. Thus, this study aimed to assess resilience and its related factors in adult populations. Methods: This was a population-based study among a random sample of Iranian adults aged 18 to 65 years old. To collect data a short demographic questionnaire and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC2) was administered. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were performed to explore the data. Results: In all 20487 Iranian adults participated in the study. The mean age of participants was 41.25±13.9. The mean resilience score was 6.1±1.9 (out of 8). Overall, 57.2 percent of participants scored equal or higher than mean. The results obtained from logistic regression analysis indicated that younger age (OR= 0.996 ،95%CI: 0.993-0.999), education [primary school (OR= 2.00, 95%CI: 1.83-2.19), high school (OR=1.35 ،95% CI: 1.26-1.44)], employment status [unemployed (OR= 1.12, 95%CI: 0.98-1.28), housewife (OR= 1.25, 95% CI: 1.12-1.4), student (OR= 1.35, 95%CI: 1.22-1.48), employed (OR= 1.50, 95%CI: 1.33-1.69)] were significantly associated with lower resilience. Conclusion: The findings suggest that Iranian adults showed a relatively high resilience during the covid-19 pandemic. It seems that age, education and employment status play important role in increased or decreased resilience. © 2022, Iranian Institute for Health Sciences Research.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the inequality in access to human resources, health care, and hygienic services in 14 cities of Sistan and Baluchestan province. Methods: This was a descriptive study. Unequal access to health care services was assessed according to several items such as the number of physicians (general practitioner, pharmacist, and dentist), specialist physicians, paramedics, hospitals, active beds, laboratories, and pharmacies. The data was collected from the statistical yearbooks of the province. The Gini coefficient and Lorenz curve were the criteria to measure inequality. Data analysis and visualizations are performed in R software. Results: Based on the five years studied, the number of physicians, specialist physicians, hospitals, and active beds per ten thousand persons in 2019 has increased compared to 2014. There was no significant increase in other measures. The mean Gini coefficient for physicians, specialists, paramedics, hospitals, active beds, laboratories, and pharmacies was 0.106, 0.324, 0.132, 0.317, 0.336, 0.120, and 0.299, respectively. The highest rate of unequal access was related to specialist physicians and active beds. Furthermore, the lowest rate was related to physicians and laboratories. Conclusion: Gini coefficients for specialist physicians and active beds in 2019 compared to 2014 have decreased significantly over time. However, inequality in the distribution of these two health indicators was high. For other measures there were no significant decrease in the Gini coefficient. Thus, the finding suggests that the policy, by which the number of specialist physicians and physical resources of health (such as hospitals, active beds, and pharmacies) were increased, should be","PeriodicalId":235399,"journal":{"name":"Health Monitor Journal of the Iranian Institute for Health Sciences Research","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132443842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to identify the critical success factors of hospitals in Tehran province. Methods: This qualitative research was conducted by phenomenological method. Semi-structured and in-depth interviews were used to collect data. The interviewees included 93 senior, middle and front-line managers working in 30 hospitals in Tehran province. Data analysis was performed by thematic analysis method using MAXQDA software. Results: A total of 51 critical success factors were identified for hospitals, which were classified into 8 main themes and 22 sub-themes. Key themes include management and leadership, planning, organizational learning, organizational culture, employee management, patient management, resource management, and process management. Transformational leadership, plan-oriented, organizational trust, the presence of renowned physicians, patient satisfaction, and the availability of resources and facilities were key factors in the success of hospitals. Conclusion: Hospital managers should strengthen these critical success factors. Their application increases the possibility of achieving organizational goals and achieving competitive advantage.","PeriodicalId":235399,"journal":{"name":"Health Monitor Journal of the Iranian Institute for Health Sciences Research","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115809991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: In this methodological study, the research team selected a number of items from the main instrument covering the main constructs of the HELIA. The selection was based on the most relevant items to each construct. A group of 12 experts and ten adults assessed content and face validity respectively. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed to assess structural validity. The reliability of the instruments was evaluated by internal correlation (Cronbach's alpha coefficient) and intraclass correlation (ICC). Results: A nine-item questionnaire was developed. Experts identified the content validity of the short version as desirable (the CVR was more than 0.56, the CVI was more than 0.79). Also, the face validity as assessed by ten adults was satisfactory. The results obtained from exploratory factor analysis showed a two-factor structure for the questionnaire, namely basic skills and decision-making skills, that jointly accounted for about 61% of the variance observed. Furthermore, the confirmatory factor analysis indicated acceptable fit indexes for the data: X2/df =2.20, GFI=0.95, CFI=0.97, NFI=0.95, NNFI=0.96, SRMR=0.068, and RMSEA=0.074. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient and ICC for each of the two dimensions were satisfactory (alpha = 0.84 and 0.81 and ICC = 0.85 and 0.82). The values for the whole items were 0.91 and 0.81, respectively. Conclusion: The HELIA-SF, including nine items and two subscales (basic skills and decision-making skills), was found to be a reliable and valid instrument to measure health literacy in adults. This version is suitable for measuring health literacy in different urban and rural population groups due to its short and concise nature.","PeriodicalId":235399,"journal":{"name":"Health Monitor Journal of the Iranian Institute for Health Sciences Research","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115020037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: In this study, the fluctuation and uncertainty of inflation was estimated using Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE). For surveying the shocks of inflation fluctuation on consumption and unemployment, the impulse respond (IR) that is so useful in structural Vector Auto Regressive (SVAR) models were used.
