BACKGROUND
The COVID-19 pandemic has led governments worldwide to implement unprecedented response strategies. While crucial to limiting the spread of the virus, "social distancing" may lead to severe psychological consequences, especially in lonely individuals.
METHODS
We used cross-sectional ( = 380) and longitudinal ( = 74) designs to investigate the links between loneliness, anxiety, and depression symptoms (ADS) and COVID-19 risk perception and affective response in young adults who implemented social distancing during the first 2 weeks of the state of epidemic threat in Poland.
RESULTS
Loneliness was correlated with ADS and with affective response to COVID-19's threat to health. However, increased worry about the social isolation and heightened risk perception for financial problems was observed in lonelier individuals. The cross-lagged influence of the initial affective response to COVID-19 on subsequent levels of loneliness was also found.
CONCLUSION
The reciprocal connections between loneliness and COVID-19 response may be of crucial importance for ADS during the COVID-19 crisis.
背景
新冠疫情促使世界各国政府实施了前所未有的应对策略。“社交距离”虽然对于限制病毒传播至关重要，但可能会导致严重的心理后果，尤其是对孤独的个体而言。
方法
我们采用横断面研究（n = 380）和纵向研究（n = 74）设计，调查在波兰疫情威胁状态的前两周实施社交距离的年轻人中，孤独感、焦虑和抑郁症状（ADS）与新冠病毒风险认知及情感反应之间的联系。
结果
孤独感与ADS以及对新冠病毒对健康威胁的情感反应相关。然而，孤独程度较高的个体对社会隔离的担忧增加，对财务问题的风险认知也更高。还发现了最初对新冠病毒的情感反应对后续孤独程度的交叉滞后影响。
结论
在新冠疫情危机期间，孤独感与新冠疫情应对之间的相互联系可能对ADS至关重要。
