Examining the association between coping strategies and perceived social support among Vietnamese infertile women undergoing IVF treatment.

The purpose of the study was to examine the association between coping strategies and perceived social support among women diagnosed with infertility and undergoing IVF treatment. A total of 383 Vietnamese women were invited to participate in this study. Participants completed a questionnaire consisting of The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, the Copenhagen Multi-centre Psychosocial Infertility coping scales and the Fertility Problem Inventory, and other relevant questions.

When are children satisfied with life? An initiative qualitative study from vietnamese children sample.

In the context of research on children's life satisfaction, considering children as active participants are very scarce, the main purpose of the present study was to examine children's perspectives on their life satisfaction. The study used a convenient sample of 228 students from primary and secondary schools, living in urban and suburban areas in Vietnam. The subjects' average age is 9.

Sex differences in human mate preferences vary across sex ratios.

A wide range of literature connects sex ratio and mating behaviours in non-human animals. However, research examining sex ratio and human mating is limited in scope. Prior work has examined the relationship between sex ratio and desire for short-term, uncommitted mating as well as outcomes such as marriage and divorce rates.

Sex Differences in Mate Preferences Across 45 Countries: A Large-Scale Replication.

Considerable research has examined human mate preferences across cultures, finding universal sex differences in preferences for attractiveness and resources as well as sources of systematic cultural variation. Two competing perspectives-an evolutionary psychological perspective and a biosocial role perspective-offer alternative explanations for these findings. However, the original data on which each perspective relies are decades old, and the literature is fraught with conflicting methods, analyses, results, and conclusions.

Psychometric properties of the MHC-SF: An integration of the existing measurement approaches.

Objective: The purpose of the current study is to test the factorial structure of the Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) in Asian population.

Method: The study was conducted across three different Vietnamese samples (N = 2741). We present a comparison of the existing measurement models of the MHC-SF using two methodological approaches: confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) (both in exploratory-using bi-geomin rotation; and in confirmatory variant-using target rotation).

The mental health continuum-short form: The structure and application for cross-cultural studies-A 38 nation study.

Objective: The Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) is a brief scale measuring positive human functioning. The study aimed to examine the factor structure and to explore the cross-cultural utility of the MHC-SF using bifactor models and exploratory structural equation modelling.

Method: Using multigroup confirmatory analysis (MGCFA) we examined the measurement invariance of the MHC-SF in 38 countries (university students, N = 8,066; 61.
