Anxiety and depression symptoms, and lack of emotional support among the general population before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A prospective national study on prevalence and risk factors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health and loneliness in the general population, focusing on prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms, the extent to which individuals with existing symptoms recovered or not, the prevalence of subtypes of loneliness, and the extent of which loneliness before and during this pandemic was associated with anxiety.
Journal ArticleDOI
Which groups affected by Potentially Traumatic Events (PTEs) are most at risk for a lack of social support? A prospective population-based study on the 12-month prevalence of PTEs and risk factors for a lack of post-event social support.
Peter G. van der Velden,Ivan H. Komproe,Carlo Contino,Marika de Bruijne,Rolf J. Kleber,Marcel Das,Henk Schut +6 more
TL;DR: Results showed that pre-event mental health problems, pre- event loneliness and stress during the PTE were important independent predictors of forms of support and acknowledgment, and victims of threat and physical (sexual) violence more often faced disapproval.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does pre-event lack of emotional support increase the risk of post-event PTSD, anxiety, depression symptoms and lack of support? A comparative population-based study among victims of threat and violence
TL;DR: Since victims and nonvictims with pre-event support did not differ in post-event symptoms and support, the findings offer strong evidence for the buffering hypothesis of emotional support.
Journal ArticleDOI
From Health to Financial Problems: Multiproblems Among Victims of Partner and Non-Partner Physical Violence, and Matched Nonvictims.
TL;DR: Insight is gained in the prevalence of multiple problems among individuals victimized by PPV in the past 12 months, compared with matched nonvictims and victims of non-partner physical violence (non-PPV).
