Abstract

The present study therefore aims to examine trait and state anxiety, sleep habits and executive functioning during 1 year and a half of the COVID-19 pandemic in children and adolescents through the lens of parents. Assessments were conducted at three different times: April 2020 (T1), October 2020 (T2) and October 2021 (T3). The main sample included 953 children and adolescents aged 6 to 18 years, and scales were used to assess anxiety (STAIC), sleep habits (BEARS) and executive functioning (BRIEF-2). The results showed that 6 months after the outbreak of the pandemic, state and trait anxiety, sleep disturbances and executive dysfunctions increased significantly. One and a half year later, trait anxiety and sleep disturbances have been maintained, while state anxiety and executive dysfunction have decreased their scores obtaining scores similar to those of April 2020. In conclusion, there has been a further decrease in children and adolescents' mental health since the beginning of the pandemic, and it seems to remain at the present time, such as trait anxiety as a part of the personality.

父母感知的COVID-19大流行期间的焦虑、睡眠习惯和执行功能:一项纵向研究

因此，本研究旨在通过父母的视角，研究儿童和青少年在1年半的COVID-19大流行期间的特征和状态焦虑、睡眠习惯和执行功能。在2020年4月(T1)、2020年10月(T2)和2021年10月(T3)三个不同的时间进行评估。主要样本包括953名6至18岁的儿童和青少年，并使用量表评估焦虑(STAIC)，睡眠习惯(BEARS)和执行功能(BRIEF-2)。结果显示，疫情爆发6个月后，状态焦虑、特质焦虑、睡眠障碍、执行功能障碍显著增加。一年半后，特质焦虑和睡眠障碍保持不变，而状态焦虑和执行功能障碍降低了他们的得分，得分与2020年4月的得分相似。总而言之，自大流行开始以来，儿童和青少年的心理健康状况进一步下降，目前似乎仍在下降，例如作为人格一部分的特质焦虑。
