Impact of gratitude on posttraumatic growth in patients with coronary stent implantation: the mediating role of resilience and perceived social support by Shanyan Lei, Yujie Zhang, Fang Yang

“…IntroductionThis study focused on investigating the extent of posttraumatic growth (PTG) and explored how resilience and perceived social support (PSS) mediate the relationship between gratitude and PTG among patients with a history of coronary stent implantation.MethodsA total of 242 patients with coronary stent implantation completed the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, the Gratitude Questionnaire-Six Item Form, the Resilience Scale, and the Perceived Social Support Scale. We used structural equation modeling to evaluate the mediating effects of resilience and PSS on gratitude and PTG.ResultsThe mean score for posttraumatic growth was 55.54 (standard deviation = 15.01). …”

Toward an Understanding of the Madden-Julian Oscillation: With a Mesoscale-Convection-Resolving Model of 0.2 Degree Grid by Masanori Yamasaki

“…The properties and behaviors of large-scale convective system (LCS), synoptic-scale convective system (SCS), mesoscale convective system (MCS), and mesoscale convection (MC), which constitute the hierarchical structure of the MJO, are also examined. It is also shown that cloud clusters, which constitute the SCS (such as super cloud cluster SCC), consist of a few MCS, and a new MCS forms to the west of the existing MCS. …”
