To control the COVID-19 pandemic, governments have implemented restrictions. This study evaluates psychological distress related to the crisis and identifies predictive factors of anxiety/depression according to age. 2,871 adults were recruited through an online questionnaire during the lockdown. Three subsamples were identified: 18-30; 30-50; > 50 years. The population suffers from anxiety and depression. Young adults adu reported lower levels of living space, occupational activity, social contact and alcohol use, but higher anxiety, depression and uncertainty than older participants. This psychological distress can be explained by lockdown conditions (differently according to age) and by intolerance to uncertainty. Also, youth's alcohol intake has decreased. Deconfinement strategies have been discussed.
为控制 COVID-19 大流行，各国政府实施了限制措施。本研究评估了与这场危机相关的心理困扰，并根据年龄确定了焦虑/抑郁的预测因素。通过封锁期间的在线问卷调查，共招募了 2871 名成年人。确定了三个亚组：18-30 岁；30-50 岁；>50 岁。该人群患有焦虑和抑郁。年轻成年人报告的居住空间、职业活动、社会接触和饮酒量较低，但焦虑、抑郁和不确定性水平高于年长参与者。这种心理困扰可以用封锁条件（根据年龄的不同）和对不确定性的不耐受来解释。此外，年轻人的饮酒量有所减少。讨论了放宽限制的策略。
