Abstract

This study provides novel insight into the relationships between coping with stress as reported during the first three months of the Coronavirus outbreak, self-efficacy, and optimism among Israeli-Palestinian college students living in Israel. Participants (n = 702) were selected using convenience sampling techniques from ten colleges in Israel, and self-report questionnaires were utilized to assess coping, self-efficacy, and optimism. Stepwise multiple regression models were used to examine the unique association of each independent variable on coping with stress, while accounting for the effects of the other independent variables to reduce multicollinearity concerns. The regression models demonstrates that higher levels of self-efficacy (β = −.12, p < 0.01) and optimism (β = −.18, p < 0.01) were negatively associated with maladaptive emotion-focused coping, whereas pessimism was positively associated (β = .12, p < 0.01). Further, higher levels of self-efficacy (β = .12, p < 0.01) and optimism (β = .18, 67 p < 0.01) were positively associated with adaptive problem-focused coping, whereas pessimism was negatively associated (β = −.10, p < 0.01). These findings are consistent with previous studies conducted globally which entail the contribution of self-efficacy and optimism to the improvement of coping behaviors. Thus, the current research shows the importance of these variables as coping resources for the Arab Israeli-Palestinian minority as well.

在冠状病毒爆发期间评估的自我效能感和乐观情绪作为应对压力的预测因素

摘要

这项研究为生活在以色列的以色列-巴勒斯坦大学生在应对冠状病毒爆发的前三个月所报告的压力、自我效能和乐观之间的关系提供了新的见解。参与者 (n = 702) 是使用便利抽样技术从以色列十所大学中选出的,并使用自我报告问卷来评估应对、自我效能和乐观情绪。逐步多元回归模型用于检查每个自变量在应对压力方面的独特关联,同时考虑其他自变量的影响以减少多重共线性问题。回归模型表明,更高水平的自我效能感 (β = -.12, p < 0.01) 和乐观 (β = -.18, p < 0. 01) 与适应不良的情绪集中应对呈负相关,而悲观情绪呈正相关 (β = .12, p < 0.01)。此外,更高水平的自我效能(β = .12, p < 0.01)和乐观(β = .18, 67 p < 0.01)与以问题为中心的适应性应对呈正相关,而悲观则呈负相关(β = - .10,p < 0.01)。这些发现与之前在全球范围内进行的研究一致,这些研究需要自我效能感和乐观主义对改善应对行为的贡献。因此,目前的研究表明,这些变量对于阿拉伯以色列-巴勒斯坦少数民族来说也是应对资源的重要性。67 p < 0.01)与以问题为中心的适应性应对呈正相关,而悲观主义则呈负相关(β = -.10,p < 0.01)。这些发现与之前在全球范围内进行的研究一致,这些研究需要自我效能感和乐观主义对改善应对行为的贡献。因此,目前的研究表明,这些变量对于阿拉伯以色列-巴勒斯坦少数民族来说也是应对资源的重要性。67 p < 0.01)与以问题为中心的适应性应对呈正相关,而悲观主义则呈负相关(β = -.10,p < 0.01)。这些发现与之前在全球范围内进行的研究一致,这些研究需要自我效能感和乐观主义对改善应对行为的贡献。因此,目前的研究表明,这些变量对于阿拉伯以色列-巴勒斯坦少数民族来说也是应对资源的重要性。
