The study focuses on the question whether the level of meaning in life acts as a moderator in the relationship between perceived stress and coping. The 204 university students in Slovakia (mean age 21.81 years) filled out the Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen et al., 1983), Life Meaningfulness Scale (Halama, 2002) and COPE (Carver et al., 1989). Cluster analysis of coping strategies identified three clusters: adaptive, avoidant and emotion-based coping. Perceived stress correlated positively with avoidant and emotion-based coping. Meaning in life was found as a moderator between perceived stress and avoidant coping but not emotion-based coping. The authors concluded that meaning in life can serve as a buffer against negative consequences of stress for the ability to cope, especially through cognitive transformation of the stress situation in the process of appraisal.

Recent evidence indicates an elevated risk of suicidal ideation for undergraduate nursing students. This research was designed to enhance the understanding of suicidal ideation in nursing students by investigating the relationships between problem-solving skills, perceived stress, hardiness, and suicidal ideation, with the possibility of hardiness acting as a moderator in the relationships between problem-solving skills appraisal and perceived stress with suicidal ideation. A multi-stage cluster random sample of Malaysian nursing undergraduate students (N = 204) completed self-report questionnaires. The results of structural equation modelling revealed that poor problem-solving skills, greater levels of perceived stress, and low levels of hardiness predicted greater levels of suicidal ideation. Also, hardiness emerged as a moderator in the links between problem-solving skills appraisal and perceived stress with suicidal ideation. The findings incrementally improve our understanding about the importance of hardiness as a moderator in explaining how problem-solving skills and perceived stress affect suicidal ideation. The results of this study are obtained from Malaysian nursing students and possible generalization to other populations should be verified by further studies.

Having gathered data from 341 participants (210 females and 131 males) over the age of 18, we investigated the predictive role of mindfulness, self-compassion, and caring for bliss in life satisfaction, controlled by perceived stress during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of a confirmatory factor analysis acknowledged the single-factor structure of the Caring for Bliss Scale adapted within the scope of this study. The mean life satisfaction scores indicated that the sample was “displeased with the life” in the midst of the pandemic. In addition, the results of a hierarchical regression showed that, after controlling for perceived stress, mindfulness, caring for bliss, and self-compassion respectively explain a significant variance of life satisfaction scores during the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposed hierarchical model was found to account for 35% of variance in the life satisfaction levels of the participants across the relevant period. The results indicate that the Caring for Bliss Scale is a valid and reliable instrument to be used in Turkish culture. In addition, mindfulness, self-compassion, and caring for bliss could be accepted as possible protective factors to be cultivated in order to enhance life satisfaction during the pandemic.
