Previous studies have shown a significant correlation between depression, resilience, self-efficacy, self-esteem and hope among schizophrenia patients, but few studies have examined the mechanisms among these factors. This study aimed to analyse the relationships among resilience, self-efficacy, self-esteem and hope as influencing factors of depression in schizophrenia patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted, and 361 schizophrenia patients were recruited. They were interviewed about their self-efficacy, self-esteem, hope, resilience and depressive symptoms. A structural equation model was used to examine the direct and indirect associations between them. The global model showed good model fit and the structural equation model revealed that the direct pathway of resilience on depression was significant, and the indirect pathway of self-efficacy, self-esteem and hope on depression via resilience was also significant. Notably, self-efficacy, self-esteem and hope did not directly affect depressive symptoms. These findings support the mediating model of self-efficacy, self-esteem and hope relevant to the depressive symptoms of schizophrenia patients in China, in which resilience plays a pivotal role. These findings elucidate the factors which may be associated with depressive symptoms and imply that enhancing resilience in people with schizophrenia could be beneficial. Moreover, studies with detailed longitudinal assessments are necessary to confirm these findings.

Self-renewal capacity and potential to differentiate into almost any cell type of the human body makes pluripotent stem cells a valuable starting material for manufacturing of clinical grade cell therapies. Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by gradual loss of structure or function of neurons, often leading to neuronal death. This results in gradual decline of cognitive, motor, and physiological functions due to the degeneration of the central nervous systems.

Background: Major decision-making self-efficacy (MDMSE) is an important indicator of students' ability to make effective decisions in specialty selection. It has implications for students' personal growth and career counselling interventions. While the previous MDMSES has been widely used in the context of China's New College Entrance Examination reform, the increased choice of majors and advancement of career planning necessitate a new scale to assess high school students' MDMSE levels.
