Examining the Mediation Role of Emotion Regulation and Hope in the Impact of Covid ‐19 on Psychological Well‐Being and Mental Health
The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly affected global physical and psychological well-being. In addition to the loss of lives, lockdowns led to widespread declines in quality of life, particularly in mental health. While some individuals struggled, others showed resilience. This study investigated how changes in life conditions during lockdown-across physical, psychological and social domains-impacted mental health and well-being. A sample of 184 univ…
Parental Bonding and Dyadic Adjustment
Emotional connections with significant caregivers greatly influence how individuals perceive themselves and others in intimate relationships. Grounded in the differentiation of self theory, this study examined factors that contribute to the quality of couple relationships. It investigated the association between parental attachment bonds and the quality of romantic attachments, as well as whether differentiation of self processes mediate these re…
Exploring Parent-Child Traits and Relationship Quality
Big five and dark triad personality traits are likely to influence the perceived quality of the parent-child relationship, as they can impact the behavior of family members and parenting styles. The main objective of this study was to analyze how adult children's and parents' personality traits affect the perceived quality of the parent-child relationship within dyadic interactions. The results revealed that parents' agreeableness and psychopathy…
The Mediating Role of Positive and Negative Affect in the Relationship between Death Anxiety and Italian Students’ Perceptions of Distance Learning Quality during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Recent data show that death anxiety and negative affect (NA) have become increasingly relevant because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The constant reminders of mortality through mass media and social media have contributed to this trend. Simultaneously, students have experienced a sudden and radical shift from face-to-face to online teaching, reducing direct human interactions and increasing anxiety. Death anxiety is often associated with mental illne…
Scholastic psychological well-being and irrational thoughts in students of primary and secondary school
The period of pre-adolescence is a period of age transition during which undesirable feelings such as anxiety, shyness, guilt, depression and anger are experienced accompanied by physical and hormonal changes experienced during puberty. Therefore, during early adolescence the psychological well-being is a critical issue. This period of transition coincides to the passage from the primary to the secondary school in Italy. This transition could hav…
The Influence of Rehabilitation on Quality of Life in Breast Cancer Survivors
The study evidenced that in the initial phase of the rehabilitation, psychological traits such as anxiety, depression, and preoccupation could have a strong association especially with the autonomous functions and the perceived physical symptoms. However, during the therapeutic process, this association decreased and these decrements were higher when patients performed their rehabilitation at home, in a more familiar and comfortable setting

Correlations Between Personality, Affective and Filial Self-Efficacy Beliefs, and Psychological Well-Being in a Sample of Italian Adolescents
Adolescence is a critical period for the emergence of a balanced personality in adults. Extraversion, neuroticism, and affective self-efficacy beliefs in emotion regulation showed to be good predictors of psychological well-being in adolescents. We analyzed the association between affective self-efficacy beliefs, personality traits, and psychological well-being of 179 Italian adolescents. We also analyzed the connection between adolescents' filia…
Religious Fundamentalism and Psychological Well-Being
This study's aims were two-fold: to contribute to an understanding of the relationship between religious fundamentalism and psychological well-being and to test the psychometric properties of the Italian adaptation of the revised Religious Fundamentalism Scale (RFS-12; Altemeyer & Hunsberger, 2004), one of the most important instruments for assessing religious fundamentalism when it is conceptualized as a cognitive process. Confirmative factor an…
Factor Structure of the Italian Version of the Religious Fundamentalism Scale
The Religious Fundamentalism Scale was applied to an Italian group, composed of 250 participants, to assess if it could be considered a reliable measure of fundamentalism. All participants professed to be believers of the Catholic religion. The overall group was split randomly into two smaller groups. The data of the first group were analyzed with an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to test the factor structure of the Italian version of the scal…
Validation of Three Compulsive Buying Scales on an Italian Sample
Compulsive shopping is an impulse control disorder that produces psychological distress. Appropriate measurement scales of compulsive buying are important to identify compulsive buyers. Three compulsive buying scales (Faber and O'Guinn scale, Edwards scale, Yale and Brown scale) were tested in an Italian sample composed of 438 participants randomly selected from the general population. Self-report questionnaires measured psychiatric dysfunctions …
Socio-demographic and Five Factor Model Variables as Predictors of Religious Fundamentalism
In the present article, we investigated the relation between socio-demographic variables and personality factors with religious fundamentalism (RF). Our data were collected from a sample of 125 Italian Catholic participants (40 males, 85 females). Correlation analyses showed a significant association between RF and the openness domain of personality (negative pole), including both facet scales (openness to experiences and openness to cultures). W…
