Using data from the UK, we show that girls have been affected more than boys by the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of their mental wellbeing. These gender differences are more pronounced in lower-income families. Our results are consistent with previous findings of larger pandemic effects on mental health of women.
利用来自英国的数据,我们发现,在心理健康方面,新冠疫情对女孩的影响比对男孩的影响更大。这些性别差异在低收入家庭中更为明显。我们的结果与先前关于疫情对女性心理健康影响更大的研究结果一致。
