Coping and adaptation strategies.
Relationships and social support.
Data Analysis and Usage
The data collected from the TRE-8 are analyzed to identify the main factors influencing mental well-being and life satisfaction. Key analyses include:
Reliability analysis to determine the internal consistency of the scale.
Factor analysis to confirm the different dimensions included in the scale.
Correlation analysis to examine the relationship between TRE-8 outcomes and other psychological variables, such as depression, anxiety, and psychological resilience.
The data can be used to develop interventions and support programs aimed at improving mental well-being.
