Abstract

Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze the network structure of physical activity, frequency, depressive, and affective symptoms in people under home isolation due to COVID-19.

Method: A longitudinal study was conducted in two phases (beginning (March 19, 2020) and end of home confinement (April 8, 2020)). The sample consisted of 579 participants from Spain (250 men and 329 women) aged 16 to 92 years (overall sample: M = 47.06, SD = 14.52). A network analysis was performed.

Results: Four clusters emerged (PA, depressive symptoms, positive affect, and negative affect). A higher frequency of physical activity was related to better-sustained attention, increased alertness, and enthusiasm. In addition, feelings of guilt and shame were mitigated, and confinement distress and irritability were reduced. Physical activity also mitigated fatigue in women, whereas feelings of unhappiness were reduced in men.

Conclusion: Physical activity seems to be an effective option for mitigating the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Public health policymakers should develop programs to promote physical activity in order to be able to cope with confinement or similar scenarios in the future.

新冠肺炎家庭分娩期间身体活动与抑郁和情感症状的网络分析。

简介：本研究的目的是分析COVID-19居家隔离人群的身体活动、频率、抑郁和情感症状的网络结构。方法：分两个阶段（开始（2020年3月19日）和结束（2020年4月8日）进行纵向研究。样本包括579名来自西班牙的参与者（250名男性和329名女性），年龄在16至92岁之间（总样本：M=47.06，SD=14.52）。进行了网络分析。结果：出现了四个集群（PA、抑郁症状、积极情感和消极情感）。较高的体育活动频率与更好的持续注意力、提高警觉性和热情有关。此外，内疚感和羞耻感减轻，禁闭痛苦和易怒情绪减轻。体育活动也减轻了女性的疲劳，而男性则减少了不快乐的感觉。结论：体育活动似乎是减轻新冠肺炎大流行负面影响的有效选择。公共卫生政策制定者应制定促进体育活动的计划，以便能够应对未来的禁闭或类似情况。

期刊介绍： lobal Mental Health (GMH) is an Open Access journal that publishes papers that have a broad application of ‘the global point of view’ of mental health issues. The field of ‘global mental health’ is still emerging, reflecting a movement of advocacy and associated research driven by an agenda to remedy longstanding treatment gaps and disparities in care, access, and capacity. But these efforts and goals are also driving a potential reframing of knowledge in powerful ways, and positioning a new disciplinary approach to mental health. GMH seeks to cultivate and grow this emerging distinct discipline of ‘global mental health’, and the new knowledge and paradigms that should come from it.
