This study examined the associations between COVID-19 stress and anxiety and depression among international college students and assessed if this relationship was moderated by coping and social support.
219 international students at a large US university.
A cross-sectional online survey utilizing validated scales was conducted from October 1 to 25, 2020. Path analyses assessed the effects of COVID-19 stress on anxiety and depression, and whether coping and social support moderated these relationships in international students.
COVID-19 stress was significantly associated with anxiety and depression in international students. Maladaptive coping moderated the relationship between COVID-19 stress and anxiety but did not moderate the relationship with depression. Neither adaptive coping or social support moderated the relationship between COVID-19 stress and anxiety or depression.
Results confirm the need for additional mental health services to reach international college students at risk of anxiety and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic.
本研究调查了 COVID-19 压力与国际大学生焦虑和抑郁之间的关系，并评估了应对方式和社会支持是否调节了这种关系。
美国一所大型大学的 219 名国际学生。
2020 年 10 月 1 日至 25 日，采用横断面在线调查，利用经过验证的量表进行。路径分析评估了 COVID-19 压力对焦虑和抑郁的影响，以及应对方式和社会支持是否调节了国际学生的这些关系。
COVID-19 压力与国际学生的焦虑和抑郁显著相关。适应不良的应对方式调节了 COVID-19 压力与焦虑之间的关系，但没有调节 COVID-19 压力与抑郁之间的关系。适应和社会支持都没有调节 COVID-19 压力与焦虑或抑郁之间的关系。
结果证实，在 COVID-19 大流行期间，需要提供更多的心理健康服务来帮助有焦虑和抑郁风险的国际大学生。
