The purpose of this study was to delineate the moderating roles of negative experiences related to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the association between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms and anxiety symptoms and internalizing behaviors during Fall 2020. Participants were 200 college students. Using a moderated moderation model, researchers found that attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms predicted anxiety symptoms for those who internalized behaviors and experienced COVID-19 more negatively. Results suggested that ADHD symptoms were playing a role in the manifestation of anxiety symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic and that college students who internalize behaviors experienced worsened ADHD symptoms. Clinical implications underscore the importance of providing mental health resources for students on campus, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specialized treatment may include help with developing time management skills and teaching interventions such as mindfulness exercises that may help alleviate anxiety and improve attention and concentration.
本研究旨在描绘与 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）相关的负面经历对 2020 年秋季注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）症状与焦虑症状和内化行为之间关联的调节作用。参与者为 200 名大学生。研究人员使用调节调节模型发现，对于内化行为和对 COVID-19 有更负面体验的个体，ADHD 症状预测了焦虑症状。研究结果表明，在 COVID-19 大流行期间，ADHD 症状在焦虑症状的表现中发挥了作用，内化行为的大学生经历了更严重的 ADHD 症状。临床意义强调了为校园学生提供心理健康资源的重要性，尤其是在 COVID-19 大流行期间。专门的治疗可能包括帮助学生发展时间管理技能和教授干预措施，例如正念练习，这可能有助于减轻焦虑并提高注意力和专注力。
