Background: Given the widespread presence of the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) virus, it is critical to explore the psychological consequences of this disease on people at all levels of society. The purpose of this study was to look into the role of death anxiety as a mediator in the relationship between personality types and psychological well-being in people with COVID-19 disease.
Materials And Methods: In this study, the research method is correlational in terms of descriptive data collection method. The statistical population consisted of all people who had experienced COVID-19 in Kermanshah, Iran 2020-2021, 220 of whom were chosen by the available sample method. The Ryff Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire (PWBQ), the personality types of John and Srivastava's short five-factor list (BFI-SV), and the Collett-Lester Anxiety Death Scale were among the research instruments employed (CL-FODS). The suggested model was evaluated using the structural equation modeling strategy and the Amos software.
Results: The findings demonstrated that extraversion, adaptation, and conscientious personality types have a positive and significant relationship with psychological well-being while neuroticism has a negative and significant relationship with psychological well-being, and openness to experience indirectly improves psychological well-being by reducing death anxiety.
Conclusion: Death anxiety appears to play a mediating role in the relationship between personality types and psychological well-being in people with COVID-19, according to the findings of this study. As a result, the proposed model fits well and can be used as an important step in identifying factors that affect people with COVID-19's psychological well-being.

Objectives: Physical function in RA is largely influenced by multiple clinical factors, however, there is a growing body of evidence that psychological state and other comorbidities also play an essential role. Using data obtained in the COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases study, an international self-reported e-survey, we aimed to explore the predictive ability of sociodemographic and clinical variables on Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function Short Form 10a (PROMIS PF-10a) in RA and to investigate variation in disease activity and functional outcomes based on country-level socio-economic parameters.
Methods: Patient demographics, disease characteristics including current symptom status, functional status and treatment variables, as well as income level of the country of residence, were extracted from survey responses.

Introduction: Anxiety and depression are common in patients with rheumatic diseases, but their impact across conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) is still not well understood. This study aims to compare depression, anxiety, and fatigue, and their effects on disease activity and physical activity in these conditions.
Methods: From January 2019 to March 2021, patients with RA, primary SjD and SLE were assessed consecutively in a monocentric cross-sectional study at the rheumatology outpatient clinic of the Hannover Medical School.

Background: The rapid growth of the global aging population highlights the need to address ageism and promote social inclusiveness. While considerable research has explored the impact of perceived ageism on older adults' mental health, limited attention has been given to how negative mental health factors-such as depression, anxiety, and stress (DAS)-influence ageist attitudes among younger populations, along with the psychological mechanisms underlying this relationship.
Purpose: This study first investigates the prevalence of ageism among undergraduates and its variation across certain socio-demographic factors at the research site.

Purpose: The occupational well-being of early childhood teachers, as a crucial measure of the stability of the early childhood workforce, is increasingly becoming a core topic of interest within the education system. Work-related stressors, particularly work-family conflict, have drawn significant attention for their impact on the occupational well-being of early childhood teachers, becoming a prominent issue in the education field. However, current research rarely explores the relationship between these factors and the underlying mechanisms involved.
