Abstract

V magistrskem delu so raziskane spremembe v duševnem zdravju starejših v času pandemije bolezni covid-19. Opredeljeni so pojmi pandemija bolezni covid-19, duševno zdravje, duševno zdravje starejših, depresivnost in depresija (pri starejših), anksioznost in anksiozne motnje (pri starejših) ter socialna kriza in ekstremni dogodek. S pomočjo deskriptivne metode dela, natančneje kvantitativne analize virov in literature, je bil opravljen pregled že obstoječih virov in literature z osredotočenjem na raziskave, ki so preučevale spremembe v duševnem zdravju starejših med pandemijo. Duševno zdravje starejših se je v času pandemije covida-19 v splošnem poslabšalo. V empiričnem delu magistrskega dela je bila s pomočjo kavzalno-neeksperimentalne metode dela, natančneje sekundarne analize podatkov, opravljena analiza podatkov, zbranih v mednarodni, longitudinalni in reprezentativni Raziskavi o zdravju, procesu staranja in upokojevanju v Evropi, na temo duševnega zdravja starejših med pandemijo, leta 2020. Z analizo več spremenljivk smo ugotovili, da se je duševno zdravje starejših (tj. anksioznost, depresivnost, težave s spanjem, osamljenost) med pandemijo poslabšalo v primerjavi s predkoronskim obdobjem, hkrati pa se je slabše duševno zdravje povezovalo z manjšim številom osebnih socialnih stikov, ki so jih starejši imeli s svojimi otroki, drugimi sorodniki, prijatelji, sodelavci in sosedi.

Secondary title: Mental health of the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic
Secondary abstract: The master thesis examines changes in mental health of the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The terms COVID-19 pandemic, mental health, mental health of the elderly, depression and anxiety of the elderly, social crisis and extreme event are defined. Using a descriptive method, specifically quantitative analysis of sources and literature, a review of existing sources and literature was conducted with a focus on research that examines changes in the mental health of the elderly during the pandemic. The mental health of the elderly generally deteriorated during the COVID-19 pandemic. An analysis of data concerning mental health of the elderly during the pandemic refers to the year 2020; the research was conducted by using causal non-experimental method of research (i.e., second analysis of data). The data was collected in international, longitudinal, and representative survey called The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe. By analysing several variables, we found that the mental health of the elderly (i.e., anxiety, depression, sleep problems, loneliness) deteriorated during the pandemic compared to the pre-pandemic period, while poorer mental health was also associated with fewer social contacts that the elderly had with their children, other relatives, friends, co workers, and neighbours.
