ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives

The stress people experience in relation to a highly stressful event, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, can undermine their sense of meaning in life. This study examined the relationship between COVID-19 pandemic-related stress and meaning in life and whether self-compassion and savoring positive emotional experience moderated this relationship.

Methods

Participants (N = 498) completed measures of pandemic-related stress, dimensions of meaning in life (comprehension, purpose, mattering), self-compassion (self-kindness, common humanity, mindfulness), and savoring (savoring through anticipation, savoring the moment, savoring through reminiscence).

Results

Results of regression analyses showed that pandemic-related stress related to less meaning in life and that all dimensions of self-compassion and savoring (with the exception of savoring through reminiscence) related positively to a dimension of meaning in life. Only common humanity buffered the relationship between pandemic-related stress and a dimension of meaning in life (purpose) as expected. Unexpectedly, for people high on common humanity the relationship between pandemic-related stress and mattering was positive, and for people high on mindfulness, the relationship between pandemic-related stress and comprehension was negative.

Conclusions

Although cross-sectional, this study’s findings suggest that promoting common humanity might be important for protecting purpose and enhancing one’s sense of mattering during a pandemic.

COVID-19 大流行相关压力与生活意义之间的关系:测试自我同情和品味的调节作用

摘要

背景和目标

人们在与高压力事件(例如 COVID-19 大流行)相关的压力下所经历的压力可能会破坏他们对生活的意义感。这项研究检查了与 COVID-19 大流行相关的压力与生活意义之间的关系,以及自我同情和享受积极的情绪体验是否缓和了这种关系。

方法

参与者 ( N  = 498) 完成了与大流行相关的压力、生活意义维度(理解、目的、重要)、自我同情(自我善良、共同人性、正念)和品味(通过预期品味、品味时刻,在回忆中品味)。

结果

回归分析的结果表明,与流行病相关的压力与生活意义的减少有关,而自我同情和品味的所有方面(除了通过回忆来品味)都与生活意义的一个方面呈正相关。正如预期的那样,只有普通人类缓冲了与流行病相关的压力与生活中的意义维度(目的)之间的关系。出乎意料的是,对于人类普遍性高的人来说,流行病相关的压力和物质之间的关系是积极的,而对于正念高的人来说,流行病相关的压力和理解之间的关系是消极的。

结论

尽管是横断面的,但这项研究的结果表明,促进共同人性对于在大流行期间保护目标和增强个人的重要性可能很重要。
