Currently, the determinants of anxiety and its related factors in the general population affected by COVID-19 are poorly understood. We examined the effects of spirituality, knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) on anxiety regarding COVID-19.
Online cross-sectional data ( = 1082) covered 17 provinces. The assessment included the Daily Spiritual Experiences Scale, the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale, and the KAP-COVID-19 questionnaire.
Multiple linear regression revealed that individuals who had low levels of spirituality had increased anxiety compared to those with higher levels of spirituality. Individuals had correct knowledge of early symptoms and supportive treatment (K3), and that individuals with chronic diseases and those who were obese or elderly were more likely to be severe cases (K4). However, participants who chose incorrect concerns about there being no need for children and young adults to take measures to prevent COVID-19 (K9) had significantly lower anxiety compared to those who responded with the correct choice. Participants who disagreed about whether society would win the battle against COVID-19 (A1) and successfully control it (A2) were associated with higher anxiety. Those with the practice of attending crowded places (P1) had significantly higher anxiety.
Spirituality, knowledge, attitudes, and practice were significantly correlated with anxiety regarding COVID-19 in the general population.
目前，人们对受新冠疫情影响的普通人群中焦虑的决定因素及其相关因素了解甚少。我们研究了精神性、知识、态度和行为（KAP）对新冠疫情焦虑的影响。
在线横断面数据（n = 1082）覆盖17个省份。评估包括每日精神体验量表、抑郁、焦虑和压力量表以及新冠疫情KAP问卷。
多元线性回归显示，与精神性水平较高的个体相比，精神性水平较低的个体焦虑程度增加。个体对早期症状和支持性治疗有正确认识（K3），患有慢性病以及肥胖或年长的个体更有可能是重症病例（K4）。然而，与做出正确选择的参与者相比，那些对儿童和年轻人无需采取措施预防新冠疫情存在错误担忧（K9）的参与者焦虑程度显著较低。对社会是否会赢得抗击新冠疫情的战斗（A1）以及能否成功控制疫情（A2）持不同意见的参与者焦虑程度较高。有前往拥挤场所行为（P1）的人焦虑程度显著较高。
在普通人群中，精神性、知识、态度和行为与新冠疫情焦虑显著相关。
