This paper reports the results of a recent survey of Chinese WeChat networkers ( = 2015, August 2020) about China's mental health conditions under COVID-19. The purpose of the survey was to measure symptoms of depression, anxiety, and somatization by using a standard 18-item battery and assess how the results were related to an individual's socioeconomic status, lifestyle, and social capital under an ongoing pandemic. The survey reveals that the pandemic has had a significant impact, as the respondents had more serious mental symptoms when their residential communities exhibited a greater exposure to the spread of the virus. The socioeconomic status of the respondents was negatively associated with the mental symptoms. It modified the impact of COVID-19, and its effect was substantially mediated by measures of lifestyle and social capital.
本文报告了最近对中国微信网民(=2015 年 8 月至 2020 年 8 月)进行的一项调查结果,该调查旨在了解 COVID-19 期间中国的心理健康状况。调查目的是使用标准的 18 项量表来衡量抑郁、焦虑和躯体化症状,并评估在持续大流行的情况下,个体的社会经济地位、生活方式和社会资本与结果的关系。调查结果表明,疫情对心理健康产生了重大影响,当受访者所在的社区有更大的病毒传播风险时,他们的心理健康症状更为严重。受访者的社会经济地位与心理健康症状呈负相关,这也会影响疫情的影响,且其作用主要通过生活方式和社会资本的衡量指标来介导。
