Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages worldwide and is part of the Portuguese lifestyles. This study aims to describe coffee consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic, the change in consumption, the relation between work and familiar pressure during the COVID-19 pandemic and coffee consumption, and the reasons for this consumption pattern.
This is a cross-sectional study conducted by an online questionnaire ( = 463) between March and June 2020. During the data collection phase, information about coffee consumption and socio-demographic characteristics were gathered.
All respondents were and are coffee consumers. The coffee average intake before the COVID-19 pandemic was 2.40 ± 0.84 cups of coffee per day, and the average consumption during the COVID-19 confinement was 2.68 ± 0.88 cups. Consumption increased during the COVID-19 pandemic, but a correlation between the consumption changes and the familiar or work pressure was not found. The general reasons for the increase in the coffee consumption were "social/cultural" (27%), "the search for energy "boost"" (22.9%), "to feel awake" (22.7%), "to deal with stress" (22.7%) and "the taste" (21.8%).
The results suggest the ever-increasing popularity of coffee consumption. Respondents also highlighted that some situations make them more prone to consume coffee consumption, such as when they face stress and the need to control tiredness. The COVID pandemic depleted a change in behaviors.
咖啡是全球消费最多的饮品之一，也是葡萄牙人生活方式的一部分。本研究旨在描述新冠疫情期间的咖啡消费情况、消费变化、新冠疫情期间工作压力和家庭压力与咖啡消费之间的关系，以及这种消费模式的原因。
这是一项于2020年3月至6月通过在线问卷（n = 463）进行的横断面研究。在数据收集阶段，收集了有关咖啡消费和社会人口统计学特征的信息。
所有受访者过去和现在都是咖啡消费者。新冠疫情之前的咖啡平均摄入量为每天2.40±0.84杯，新冠疫情封锁期间的平均消费量为2.68±0.88杯。新冠疫情期间咖啡消费有所增加，但未发现消费变化与家庭或工作压力之间存在相关性。咖啡消费增加的普遍原因是“社会/文化”（27%）、“寻求能量‘提升’”（22.9%）、“保持清醒”（22.7%）、“应对压力”（22.7%）和“口味”（21.8%）。
结果表明咖啡消费越来越受欢迎。受访者还强调，某些情况会使他们更倾向于消费咖啡，比如当他们面临压力和需要控制疲劳时。新冠疫情导致了行为上的变化。
