Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the mental health status and relevant factors among community residents during the normalization stage of prevention and control of COVID-19. MethodsFrom August 28 to September 7， 2020， an online cross-sectional survey using snowball sampling was conducted among community residents via Wenjuanxing platform， and their mental health status were assessed using Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item（PHQ-9）， Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 item（GAD-7）， Insomnia Severity Index（ISI） and Chinese Perceived Stress Scale（CPSS）. ResultsAmong the 476 community residents， the detection rates of depression， anxiety， insomnia and high perceived stress were 32.35%， 21.22%， 24.58% and 48.74%， respectively. In terms of gender， the detection rate of high perceived stress was higher in male than in female（χ2=5.269）； in terms of marital status， the detection rates of depression and anxiety among the unmarried， divorced or widowed residents was higher than those of the married residents（χ2=5.251， 8.851）； in terms of mental health service status， the detection rates of depression， anxiety， insomnia and high perceived stress among residents with mental health service needs was higher than those among residents without the needs（χ2=46.316， 66.934， 20.153， 21.576）， with statistical significance（P<0.05 or 0.01）. Correlation analysis showed that the age of community residents was negatively correlated with CPSS score（r=-0.171， P<0.01）， sleep duration was negatively correlated with PHQ-9， GAD-7 and ISI scores（r=-0.210， -0.247， -0.297， P<0.01）， and time spent following news on COVID-19 per day was negatively correlated with ISI score（r=-0.097， P<0.05）. ConclusionDuring the normalization stage of prevention and control of COVID-19， the majority of community residents experience the symptoms of depression， anxiety， insomnia and high perceived stress. Male and younger residents are more likely to experience high levels of perceived stress. Those with shorter sleep duration and needs for mental health services are more likely to experience symptoms of depression， anxiety and insomnia， and those with short time spent following news on COVID-19 are more likely to experience insomnia symptom.
