This investigation is intended to explore the effect of the digital environment as well as perfectionism during the COVID-19 pandemic on anxiety and depression. The study used a mixed-methods design; a mixed research methodology was used regarding explanatory design by using a qualitative sub-sample from quantitative sample data. The researcher conducted the study on a sample of 980 students and non-students smartphone and internet users using both qualitative (self-reported) and quantitative (questionnaires) approach. Three different questionnaires were used: The Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, Beck Depression (BD), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BA). On the other hand, the researcher designed a self-reported interview for the qualitative part that included 5 major questions and 10 sub-questions. The gathered data were investigated using SPSS version 22 to analyze the collected data for this study, and simple descriptive statistics and coding were used. The results denote that the digital environment is significantly correlated with multidimensional perfectionism in a low positive manner for students. However, the correlation effects for non-students are significantly high as evidenced by a significant positive correlation. Another finding suggests that there is a positive significant association between perfectionism and being depressed and anxious.
本调查旨在探讨新冠疫情期间数字环境以及完美主义对焦虑和抑郁的影响。该研究采用了混合方法设计;在解释性设计方面,采用了混合研究方法,即从定量样本数据中抽取定性子样本。研究者对980名学生和非学生智能手机及互联网用户样本进行了研究,采用了定性(自我报告)和定量(问卷调查)两种方法。使用了三种不同的问卷:多维完美主义量表、贝克抑郁量表(BD)和贝克焦虑量表(BA)。另一方面,研究者为定性部分设计了一份自我报告访谈,包括5个主要问题和10个子问题。使用SPSS 22版本对收集到的数据进行调查,以分析本研究的收集数据,并使用了简单描述性统计和编码。结果表明,数字环境与学生的多维完美主义呈低正相关。然而,非学生的相关效应显著较高,表现为显著正相关。另一个发现表明,完美主义与抑郁和焦虑之间存在显著正相关。
