Social distancing, during previous epidemics, has been shown to lead to poor mental health outcomes and reduced physical activity. The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationships between self-reported psychological state and physical activity behaviors of individuals under social distancing policies during the COVID-19 pandemic. 199 individuals (29.85 ± 10.22 yrs) in the United States who had been in social distancing for 2-4 weeks participated in this study. Participants answered a questionnaire regarding feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety, mood state, and physical activity. 66.8% of participants had depressive symptoms and 72.8% had symptoms of anxiety. Loneliness was correlated with depression ( = 0.66), trait anxiety ( = 0.36), fatigue ( = 0.38), confusion ( = 0.39), and total mood disturbance (TMD; = 0.62). Participation in total physical activity was negatively associated with depressive symptoms ( = -0.16) and TMD ( = -0.16). State anxiety was positively associated with participation in total physical activity ( = 0.22). In addition, a binomial logistic regression was performed to predict participation in sufficient physical activity. The model explained 45% of the variance in physical activity participation and correctly categorized 77% of cases. Individuals with higher vigor scores had an increased likelihood of participating in sufficient physical activity. Loneliness was associated with negative psychological mood state. Individuals with higher feelings of loneliness, depressive symptoms, trait anxiety, and negative mood state were observed to spend less time engaged in physical activity. Higher state anxiety was positively associated with engagement in physical activity.
在以往的疫情期间，社交距离已被证明会导致心理健康状况不佳和身体活动减少。本研究的目的是探讨在新冠疫情期间实施社交距离政策下个体自我报告的心理状态与身体活动行为之间的关系。199名在美国进行了2至4周社交距离的个体（年龄29.85±10.22岁）参与了本研究。参与者回答了一份关于孤独感、抑郁、焦虑、情绪状态和身体活动的问卷。66.8%的参与者有抑郁症状，72.8%的参与者有焦虑症状。孤独感与抑郁（r = 0.66）、特质焦虑（r = 0.36）、疲劳（r = 0.38）、困惑（r = 0.39）以及总情绪紊乱（TMD；r = 0.62）相关。总体身体活动参与与抑郁症状（r = -0.16）和TMD（r = -0.16）呈负相关。状态焦虑与总体身体活动参与呈正相关（r = 0.22）。此外，进行了二项逻辑回归以预测充足身体活动的参与情况。该模型解释了身体活动参与差异的45%，并正确分类了77%的案例。活力得分较高的个体参与充足身体活动的可能性增加。孤独感与负面心理情绪状态相关。孤独感、抑郁症状、特质焦虑和负面情绪状态较高的个体进行身体活动的时间较少。较高的状态焦虑与身体活动参与呈正相关。
