Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19, several governments around the world implemented strict lockdown measures. However, these measures produced a number of negative psychological effects, such as increased anxiety and depression [1,2]. This article presents raw data from variables related to psychological distress, and from possible sources of psychological distress, such as the use of certain emotion regulation strategies, exposure to different media sources, demographic information (e.g., age, marital status, having children), or characteristics of the house (e.g., overcrowding or isolation). The data were collected online from March to June 2020 on an Ecuadorian sample of 618 participants (18-75 years old). The provided dataset could be useful to other researchers interested in investigating potential sources of psychological distress or vulnerable groups during a lockdown situation.
由于新冠病毒病（COVID-19）的迅速传播，世界上多个国家的政府实施了严格的封锁措施。然而，这些措施产生了一些负面心理影响，如焦虑和抑郁情绪增加[1,2]。本文呈现了与心理困扰相关变量的原始数据，以及心理困扰可能的来源，如某些情绪调节策略的使用、接触不同媒体来源、人口统计学信息（如年龄、婚姻状况、育有子女情况）或住房特征（如过度拥挤或隔离）。这些数据于2020年3月至6月通过在线方式收集，样本来自厄瓜多尔的618名参与者（年龄在18 - 75岁之间）。所提供的数据集可能对其他有兴趣在封锁期间调查心理困扰潜在来源或弱势群体的研究人员有用。
