Abstract

Infertility and infertility treatment cause great suffering for individuals and couples, particularly when they lack psychosocial support and resilience. The purpose of the study was to examine the association between the role of psychosocial support and resilience in 152 infertility patients at 2 hospitals in North Vietnam. Participants completed the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The findings demonstrated that resilience in infertility patients, both generally and specifically in women, was significantly predicted by support from friends and family. Meanwhile, psychosocial support sources have no effect on resilience in infertile men. The findings highlight the importance of psychosocial support for people diagnosed with infertility in the Vietnamese cultural context.
