ABSTRACT
The Covid-19 pandemic generated mental health problems, which motivated this research to test the effect of resilience, mediated by positive and negative affects, on life satisfaction and flourishing. A total of 261 Brazilian university students participated; they had an average age of 24.38 ± 7.44 years old, and 63.9 % were female. They answered an online survey at the beginning of social isolation containing scales on resilience, life satisfaction, positive and negative affects, and flourishing, in addition to sociodemographic questions. In the mediation model, the results indicated sufficiently adequate fits [B-Sχ² (328) = 698.28; p = 0.001; B-Sχ² / df = 2.13; cfi= 0.91; tli= 0.90; rmsea= 0.066 p (rmsea<0.05) = 0.001], showing a mediating effect for positive affect, which corroborates previous stu-dies, suggesting the importance of resilience and po-sitive emotions even during the Covid-19 pandemic to preserve the mental health of university students. These results can contribute to the implementation of an intervention project using positive psychology va-riables to promote mental health in university students.

El objetivo es pro-bar el efecto de la resiliencia en la satisfacción con la vida y el florecimiento, mediado por afectos positivos y negativos. Participaron 261 universitarios brasileros, el 63.9 % eran mujeres, con edad promedio de 24.38 ± 7.44 años. Al comienzo del aislamiento social, respondieron en línea cuestionarios que contenían escalas de resiliencia, satisfacción con la vida, afectos positivos y negativos, y florecimientos, además de cuestiones sociodemográficas. En el modelo de mediación, los resultados indicaron ajustes suficientemente adecuados [B-Sχ² (328) = 698.28; p = 0.001; B-Sχ² / gl = 2.13; cfi= 0.91; tli= 0.90; rmsea= 0.066; p (rmsea<0.05) = 0.001], mostrando un efecto mediador de afecto positivo, lo que corrobora estudios previos, sugiriendo la importancia de la resiliencia y de las emociones positivas durante la pandemia de Covid-19 para mantener la salud mental. Los resultados de este estudio pueden contribuir a la implementación de un proyecto de intervención utilizando variables de psicología positiva para promover la salud mental en estudiantes universitarios.

HumansABSTRACT
This study was aimed to acquire the dynamic changes of chlorogenic acid and luteoloside of honeysuckle at different collecting periods in order to decide the best harvesting time of honeysuckle in Donghai County, Jiangsu Province. The content determination method used in the detection of chlorogenic acid and luteoloside of honeysuckle was from the 2010 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The skills of HPLC fingerprint characteristic features, and the yield of pressed flowers were combined in the evaluation of honeysuckle at the three-green period, two-white pe-riod, great-white period, silver-flower period and the golden-flower period. The results showed that the content of honeysuckle at different blossoming stages had obvious changes in content of chlorogenic acid and luteoloside, as well as the pressed flower quality and yield of the flower. It was concluded that the optimal harvest time of honey-suckle was for the two-white period and the great-white period, which was consistent with the real origin.
