摘要
People around the world of developing countries have faced severe issues during this long pandemic outbreak, and harshly affected mentally, economically and socially. Financial pondering and worries have caused serious psychological and mental health problems among the people whatever is their income. Well-being and metal health of business community are the target constructs of this article to be discussed. The present study was aimed to investigate the demographical backgrounds in relationship to well-being, mental effects and financial causes. An online self-administered data was collected from a sample of population (n=100) in Timergara, Dir Lower, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. We developed a study with psychometric properties of major scales included well-being, impact event on depression anxiety stress scale (DASS). The event impact was significantly, and negatively associated with wellbeing (r = -.43, p<.01), and positively associated with stress (r = .60, p<.01), anxiety (r = .60, p<.01) and depression (r = .58, p<.01). However, a negative event impact on wellbeing (B= -.23, p<.001), stress (B = .17, p<.001), anxiety (B = .16, p<.001), depression (B = .17, p<.001) was observed with a predictor (R-2) accounted on 43%, 36%, 36%, 36% of variance on outcome, respectively. The results were healthy and generalized to the population of Dir community, Pakistan, in relation to their income loss and effects on mental well-being. It could be assumed that not only ecological, climatic or any other features were the only effective responsible factors, in fact, the psychological and economic impacts seemed to be the major factors affected the most.
