Abstract

The Epidemic-Pandemic Impacts Inventory (EPII) is a 92-item measure developed to assess tangible impacts of the pandemic including both negative (work, home, social, and health) and positive changes. The EPII has been used in a variety of studies, but a standard scoring system has not been determined. Parents of young children (N = 216) completed the EPII, Perceived Stress Scale, Parenting Stress Scale, Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS-PA and PANAS-NA), and COVID-19 Stress Scale (CSS) online September 2021-May 2022. The EPII was scored in three ways represented in the literature to examine which scoring method accounted for the greatest amount of variance in parents' stress and mood, independent of demographic factors and CSS. Hierarchical linear regression results revealed that one EPII scoring method consistently accounted for the greatest amount of variance in each outcome variable (largest R2) compared to the other two scoring methods. Additionally, number of negative and positive pandemic impacts accounted for more variance (larger β coefficient) in each outcome compared to demographic factors and CSS, with the exception that negative pandemic impacts were not associated with PANAS-PA. One method of scoring the EPII may maximize the measures' potential to account for variance in stress and mood among parents of young children. The EPII may be a valuable measure to include in studies examining the impact of the pandemic on parents' well-being even beyond the peak of the pandemic, as its association with stress and mood appears to be long-lasting and independent of demographic factors and COVID-19 stress.

研究在幼儿父母中对流行病影响量表进行评分的方法。
流行病流行病影响清单(EPII)是一项92项措施,旨在评估流行病的有形影响,包括负面(工作、家庭、社会和健康)和积极变化。EPII已用于各种研究,但尚未确定标准评分系统。幼儿父母(N=216)于2021年9月至2022年5月在线完成了EPII、感知压力量表、父母压力表、积极和消极情绪量表(PANAS-PA和PANAS-NA)和新冠肺炎压力量表(CSS)。EPII以文献中所示的三种方式进行评分,以检验哪种评分方法在父母压力和情绪方面的差异最大,与人口统计学因素和CSS无关。分层线性回归结果显示,与其他两种评分方法相比,一种EPII评分方法在每个结果变量中的方差最大(最大R2)。此外,与人口统计学因素和CSS相比,负面和积极的大流行影响的数量在每个结果中解释了更多的方差(较大的β系数),但负面的大流行影响与PANAS-PA无关。EPII评分的一种方法可以最大限度地发挥这些测量的潜力,以解释幼儿父母在压力和情绪方面的差异。EPII可能是一项有价值的措施,可用于研究疫情对父母福祉的影响,甚至在疫情高峰期之后,因为它与压力和情绪的关联似乎是持久的,并且独立于人口统计学因素和新冠肺炎压力。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2023 APA,保留所有权利)。
