Abstract：
Throughout the COVID-19 period, families were forced to stay indoors, adapting to online schooling, remote work, and virtual social engagements, inevitably altering the dynamics within households. There was a notable increase in mental health challenges in terms of anxiety and depression in children and adolescents. This study intended to explore the psychosocial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Italian families by adopting self- and proxy-report questionnaires on anxiety, anger, and health-related quality of life. The results showed that approximately 20% obtained a clinical anxiety score and only 10% obtained a clinical anger score. There was a difference in the perception of the quality of life reported by the child and that perceived by the parent. A stepwise regression model showed that total anxiety scores were predicted by sex, quality of life scores from the parents\' self-report version, and the total anger score. Another stepwise regression model identified physiological and social anxiety as the best predictors that impact quality of life. Parental well-being actively influences the well-being of children, so it is fundamental to implement preventive programs and promote child well-being by providing parents the most adequate support possible.
摘要：
在整个COVID-19期间，家庭被迫呆在室内,适应在线教育，远程工作,和虚拟的社交活动，不可避免地改变了家庭内部的动态。在儿童和青少年的焦虑和抑郁方面，心理健康挑战显着增加。这项研究旨在通过采用有关焦虑的自我和代理报告问卷来探索COVID-19大流行对意大利家庭的心理社会影响，愤怒,和健康相关的生活质量。结果显示，大约20％获得了临床焦虑评分，只有10％获得了临床愤怒评分。孩子和父母对生活质量的看法有所不同。逐步回归模型显示，焦虑总分按性别预测，父母自我报告版本的生活质量分数，和总愤怒得分。另一个逐步回归模型将生理和社交焦虑确定为影响生活质量的最佳预测因子。父母的幸福积极影响着孩子的幸福，因此，实施预防计划并通过向父母提供最充分的支持来促进儿童福祉是至关重要的。
