Reliability and Validity of the Chinese version of the state stress mindset-induced video

Previous studies have found that whether stress affects people negatively or positively depends on people's beliefs and views on stress itself, that is, stress mindset, which mainly includes stress-is-enhancing-mindset and stress-is-debilitating mindset. Different stress mindsets will lead to different physiological and psychological responses when people experience stress events or after stress events, thus affecting the physical and mental health of individuals when they experience stress events or after stress events. Researchers have found that different state stress mindsets of individuals can be induced through materials such as videos, but there is currently a lack of state stress mindset-inducing videos suitable for Chinese cultural backgrounds. This study revised the Chinese version of the state stress mindset-induced video developed by Crum et al. (2017) and tested its reliability and validity. After watching the Chinese version of the state stress mindset-induced video, 38 healthy adult subjects rated their subjective reports on arousal and emotional valence. Among them, the stress mindset video includes two versions: stress-is-enhancing-mindset and stress-is-debilitating mindset. At the same time, fill in the positive and negative emotion scale and the state stress mindset scale before and after watching the video. It was found that there was no significant difference in arousal between the stress-is-enhancing-mindset-induced video and the stress-is-debilitating mindset- induced video. Compared with before watching the stress-is-enhancing-mindset video, individuals had higher positive emotions and stress-is-enhancing-mindset scores after watching the stress-is-enhancing-mindset video; Individuals had higher stress-is-debilitating mindset scores after watching the stress-is-debilitating mindset video than before the video. The results show that the Chinese version of state stress aspiration-induced video has good reliability and validity, can effectively induce individual stress-is-enhancing-mindset or stress-is-debilitating mindset, and can be used as a suitable tool for carrying out stress mindset-related research.已有研究表明，压力对个体产生消极还是积极影响，取决于人们对压力本身的信念与看法，即压力心态（stress mindset），其主要包含压力增强型心态（stress-is-enhancing-mindset）与压力削弱型心态（stress-is-debilitating mindset）两类。不同的压力心态会使个体在遭遇压力事件或经历压力事件后产生截然不同的生理与心理反应，进而影响个体在压力事件发生时或之后的身心健康。已有研究证实，可通过视频等材料诱导个体形成不同的状态压力心态（state stress mindset），但目前缺乏适配中国文化背景的状态压力心态诱导视频。本研究对Crum等人（2017）开发的中文版状态压力心态诱导视频进行了修订，并检验了其信效度。38名健康成年被试观看该视频后，对自身的唤醒度与情绪效价进行了主观评分。该压力心态诱导视频包含两个版本：压力增强型心态与压力削弱型心态版本。同时，所有被试需在观看视频前后填写正负性情绪量表与状态压力心态量表。研究发现，压力增强型心态诱导视频与压力削弱型心态诱导视频在唤醒度上无显著差异。相较于观看压力增强型心态诱导视频前，被试在观看该视频后报告的正性情绪与压力增强型心态得分均更高；而相较于观看压力削弱型心态诱导视频前，被试在观看该视频后报告的压力削弱型心态得分更高。研究结果表明，中文版状态压力心态诱导视频具备良好的信效度，可有效诱导个体形成压力增强型心态或压力削弱型心态，可作为开展压力心态相关研究的适配工具。
