Abstract

Pandemija bolezni COVID-19 je prinesla korenite spremembe tudi na psihološki ravni posameznika, zato je namen naše raziskave ugotoviti, kako so ljudje doživljali obdobje prve epidemije, kateri dejavniki so jim povzročali največ negativnih čustev in stresa ter kako so se z njimi spoprijemali. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 433 udeležencev, starejših od 18 let. Od tega je bilo 365 (84,3%) žensk. Povprečna starost oseb je bila 34,3 let (SD = 11,3), starostni razpon je bil med 18 in 77 let. Udeleženci so izpolnili razširjeno obliko Vprašalnika pozitivnega in negativnega čustvovanja (PANAS-X), kratko različico Vprašalnika spoprijemanja s stresom (Brief COPE), kratko obliko Vprašalnika Velikih pet (BFI-K) ter na nekatera izdvojena vprašanja iz Vprašalnika strahu pred Ebolo (EFI). Oblikovali smo seznam 11 dejavnikov izvora čustvovanja za katere so podali odgovor, ali so jim predstavljali izvor bolj pozitivnih, ali negativnih čustev. Rezultati so pokazali, da so udeleženci pogosteje doživljali pozitivna čustva, kot negativna. Pomemben dejavnik za doživljanje negativnih čustev je bil ženski spol, nižja starost ter višje izražen nevroticizem. Izobrazba se ni izkazala za pomemben dejavnik. Dejavniki, ki so v posameznih vzbujali največ negativnih čustev, so bili spremljanje medijev, ukrepi odločevalcev, omejeni stiki s prijatelji in bližnjimi ter neopredeljen čas trajanja pandemije. Največ pozitivnih čustev so udeleženci doživljali na račun odnosov v družini oziroma gospodinjstvu. Kot najpogostejši napovednik pozitivnega in negativnega čustvovanja se je izkazal dejavnik izzivi povezani z delom in študijem od doma. Pomembno je, da se vsem omenjenim dejavnikom nameni še dodatna pozornost. Posamezniki so se v splošnem uspešno soočali s stresom in negativnimi občutji, najpogosteje uporabljeni strategiji pri tem sta bili sprejemanje in pozitivna reinterpretacija.

Secondary title: Emotions and coping with stress in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic
Secondary abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic also brought changes on a psychological level of individuals. That is why the purpose of our research was to see how people experienced the pandemic period, which factors contributed the most to experiencing negative emotions and stress, and how they were able to manage it. There were 433 participants, older than 18 years who participated in the research. There were 365 (84,3%) women. Average age was 34,3 years (SD = 11,3), age variated from 18 to 77 years. Participants filled out the Expanded Form of the Positive Affect Negative Affect Scale (PANAS-X), Brief Coping Orientation To Problems Experienced (Brief COPE), short version of The Big Five Questionnaire (BFI-K) and a few relevant questions from the Ebola Fear Inventory (EFI). We also created a list of 11 factors of origin of affect for which participants had to indicate whether they affected them positively or negatively. Results showed that participants more often experienced positive than negative affect. Women, younger participants, and participants with higher levels of neuroticism experienced more negative affect. Education was not an important factor in this. Media, COVID-19 measures, restricted contacts with loved ones and undefined duration of the pandemic, caused the most negative affect among participants. Whereas family relations and relations among a household were a very common source of positive affect. The most common predictor of negative and positive affect were challenges connected to work and study from home. We believe it is highly important to give extra attention to the above exposed factors. Participants were generally successful with stress coping; the most used coping strategies were acceptance and positive reframing.
