The transformation that COVID-19 has brought upon the world is unparalleled. The impact on mental health is equally unprecedented and yet unexplored in depth. An online-based survey was administered to 413 community-based adults during COVID-19 confinement to explore psychological impact and identify high risk profiles. Young females concerned about the future, expressing high COVID-related distress, already following psychological therapy and suffering from pre-existing chronic conditions, were those at highest risk of psychological impact due to the COVID-19 situation. Findings could be employed to design tailored psychological interventions in the early stages of the outbreak to avoid the onset/exacerbation of psychopathology.
新冠疫情给世界带来的转变是前所未有的。其对心理健康的影响同样前所未有,且尚未深入研究。在新冠疫情封控期间,我们对 413 名社区成年人进行了一项基于网络的调查,旨在探索心理影响,并确定高危人群。对未来感到担忧、表达出较高新冠相关困扰、已经接受心理治疗以及患有慢性疾病的年轻女性,是受新冠疫情影响面临最大心理风险的人群。这些发现可用于在疫情早期设计定制的心理干预措施,以避免精神病理学的发生/恶化。
