    Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has precipitated widespread health anxiety, affecting populations globally. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between introspective awareness and health anxiety levels. Methods: Employing a cross-sectional design and the convenience sampling method, 350 residents of Richmond Hill of Canada with an age of 18 and above participated in this study in year 2023. Health anxiety was assessed using the Health Anxiety Inventory (HAI), while introspective awareness was measured via the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA), encompassing eight subscales. Pearson correlation and linear regression analyses were conducted to explore the predictive relationships between introspective awareness components and health anxiety. Results: The participants had a slight female predominance (53.43%), diverse age distribution, and the majority having post-secondary education (81.43%). Noticing (r = -0.45, p < 0.001) and Emotional Awareness (r = -0.48, p < 0.001) demonstrated significant negative correlations with health anxiety, indicating their potential protective roles while other subscales showed no significant predictive role individually (p > 0.05). The regression model revealed that these components significantly predicted health anxiety levels, accounting for approximately 42% of the variance (R^2 = 0.42, F(2, 347) = 48.35, p < 0.001). Specifically, increases in Noticing and Emotional Awareness were associated with decreases in health anxiety scores (B = -3.45 and B = -4.12, respectively; p < 0.001). Conclusion: Considering the results, enhancing aspects of introspective awareness, such as Noticing and Emotional Awareness, could be crucial in developing interventions aimed at reducing health anxiety in pandemic conditions and beyond.

    Background and Objective: Parenting a child with a disability presents unique challenges and necessitates psychological adaptation. This study explores the psychological adaptations of parents to childhood disabilities. Methods: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing semi-structured interviews with 26 parents of children with disabilities in Richmond Hill, Ontario in 2023. Theoretical saturation was achieved to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the experiences. Meanwhile, the data were analyzed using thematic analysis, facilitated by NVivo software. Results: Four main themes were identified: emotional journey, coping strategies, family dynamics, and social and community support. The emotional journey theme included initial reactions of shock and adaptation over time, leading to grief acceptance and positive reappraisals. The coping strategies theme involved seeking information, building a support network, professional support, personal coping mechanisms, and advocacy. Family Dynamics revealed changes in family roles, sibling relationships, and marital/partner relationships. Finally, the social and community support theme highlighted the importance of community involvement, access to resources, public perception and stigma, and inclusion and accessibility. Conclusion: This study demonstrates parents' complex and dynamic psychological adaptations to childhood disabilities. It underscores the importance of comprehensive support systems that address the emotional, practical, and social needs of families. The findings highlight the resilience of parents and the necessity for targeted interventions to support their well-being and facilitate positive adaptation.
