This study was conducted to identify the roles of empowerment and anger in the relationship between ability of application and psychological well-being among the subfactors of Competency to Consent to Treatment.
The research participants consisted of 191 psychiatric patients who had voluntarily agreed to receive treatment through psychiatric departments in Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeollanam-do. The moderated mediating effects of empowerment and anger were verified.
Empowerment fully mediated the relationship between applicability and psychological well-being, which was moderated by anger regulation levels.
Empowerment must be treated as important to promote psychological well-being in psychiatric patients. Also, intervention for anger regulation is needed.

This study sought to analyze the structural relationships between optimism, distress tolerance, grief avoidance, intrusive rumination, deliberate rumination, and psychological well-being among undergraduates who have experienced a loss.
Subjects comprised 435 university students (258 females and 177 males), with their duration of grief experience and the elapsed period from when the loss occurred having been taken into consideration.
Distress tolerance, grief avoidance, intrusive rumination, and deliberate rumination mediated the relationship between optimism and psychological well-being sequentially. Additionally, there were significant differences between the “less than 6 months” and “more than 6 months” groups in the structural relationships between optimism, distress tolerance, grief avoidance, intrusive rumination, deliberate rumination, and psychological well-being.
The direct path of grief avoidance to psychological well-being was not significant, but it was found to have a significant effect through the sequential mediations of intrusive rumination and deliberate rumination. This result suggests the need for active intervention to allow people to face and cope with life after a loss, without avoiding the loss experience.
