Description
Ming Jun Kuck, Nicola J. Paine, and Eef Hogervorst modeled stress and quality of life during the menopausal transition in a 2026 path analysis. An anonymous online survey gathered 269 valid responses from women aged 40 to 60 classed as premenopausal, perimenopausal, or postmenopausal under STRAW+10 criteria. Measures covered negative life events, perceived stress, social support, resilience, self-efficacy, and menopause-specific quality of life.
Path modeling treated negative events as the starting point and tested whether perceived stress carries their effect toward psychosocial well-being. Results help clinicians see which supports might buffer women when life events and hormonal change collide. Women in the group spanned the years just before, in the midst of, and just past the change of life, which makes the mix broad.
