Abstract: The definition of adjustment disorder (AjD) was recently revised by the 11th version of the International Classification of Diseases. Thus far, only two studies explored stressors associated with symptoms of AjD according to the new definition, revealing that there might be a difference in associations with daily stressors compared to traumatic events. The present study aims at examining the associations of AjD with both types of stressors as well as the mediating role of psychological well-being that was previously suggested as a buffer against mental illness. Four hundred and 19 participants completed questionnaires assessing the prevalence of daily stressors and traumatic events experienced in the last 2 years, psychological well-being and the diagnostic criteria of AjD. Results revealed a direct effect of the prevalence of daily stressors on the diagnosis of AjD as well as the mediating effect of psychological well-being of this association. However, no effect was found for traumatic events on AjD or psychological well-being. Given these findings, psychological well-being should be regarded as a means to reduce the prevalence of AjD among individuals coping with multiple and continuous daily stressors.
