Anonymous interview questionnaires were used to collect data on demographic characteristics, psychosocial wellbeing (PWB), sexual self-efficacy, and depressive symptoms.

The final mediation model showed that the effect of overall psychological wellbeing on depressive symptoms was partially mediated by sexual self-efficacy. Specifically, 4.1% of the effect of overall PWB on depressive symptoms was mediated through sexual self-efficacy. In the PWB subdimension analyses, sexual self-efficacy mediated 14.3% of the effect of personal growth, 8.8% of the effect of purpose in life, 8.0% of the effect of autonomy, and 7.8% of the effect of environmental mastery on depressive symptoms, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study findings demonstrate that sexual self-efficacy plays an important role in the relationship between psychosocial wellbeing and depressive symptoms among female migrant workers in industrial zones in Vietnam. Improving psychosocial wellbeing and promoting sexual health including sexual self-efficacy should be prioritized when addressing depressive symptoms and mental health concerns among industrial zone female migrant workers in Vietnam, which may also be applicable in other low- and middle-income countries with similar socio-cultural settings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/00207640231188033","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,21]],"date-time":"2023-07-21T07:22:57Z","timestamp":1689924177000},"page":"2068-2078","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The mediation effects of sexual self-efficacy in the relationship between psychosocial wellbeing and depressive symptoms among female migrant workers in Vietnam"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"69","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0574-0804","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Toan","family":"Ha","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hui","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tom Wen-Han","family":"Su","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roman","family":"Shrestha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Allied Health Sciences, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara","family":"Baumann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Trang","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Social and Medical Studies, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nam","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Social and Medical Studies, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Le Minh","family":"Giang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephen L","family":"Schensul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health Sciences, University of Connecticut School of Medicine, Farmington, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-00207640231188033","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40359-016-0152-1"},{"key":"bibr2-00207640231188033","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10461-010-9678-z"},{"key":"bibr3-00207640231188033","unstructured":"Atrian M.
