Social Support and Resilience Mediate the Relationship of Stress with Satisfaction with Life and Flourishing of Youth
British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, v52 n4 p685-696 2024
This study examined whether social support and resilience mediate the association of stress with satisfaction with life and flourishing. Participants were 230 undergraduate students (54% males; mean age = 23.75±1.24 years) who completed the measures of perceived stress, social support, resilience, satisfaction with life, and flourishing. Results revealed that: (i) perceived stress was indirectly related to satisfaction with life via social support and resilience, but was not negatively related to satisfaction with life and (ii) perceived stress was indirectly related to flourishing via social support and resilience and negatively related to flourishing. These results highlight the importance of social and psychological resources (i.e. social support and resilience) in mitigating the impact of stress on the well-being and flourishing of individuals.
