Table 4. Results of structural equation modeling on the mediating effect of positive emotions.
| Indirect paths | Effects | SE | p | Lower 5% | Upper 5% | Results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AW→Perceived stress→ Health | -0.051 | 0.016 | 0.001 | -0.081 | -0.028 | Supported |
| SFS→Perceived stress→ Health | -0.078 | 0.020 | 0.000 | -0.113 | -0.049 | Supported |
| FOC→Perceived stress→Health | -0.029 | 0.012 | 0.014 | -0.053 | -0.013 | Supported |
Note: AW = academic workload; SFS = separation from school; FOC = fears of contagion; We report the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated using 1,000 bootstrap samples, with lower and upper limits in brackets.
