未经批准:年轻人是与COVID-19相关的恐惧的弱势群体。其中,那些具有LGBTQ+身份的人面临更高的风险。鉴于灵性和社会支持对恐惧的保护作用,这项研究探讨了它们对异性恋和LGBTQ+青年中COVID-19相关恐惧的影响。
UNASSIGNED:这项横断面研究招募了137名年龄在18-30岁的菲律宾人。受访者回答了一项包含社会人口统计问卷的调查,12项多维感知社会支持量表(MSPSS),灵性问卷(CDSQ)的20项核心维度,和7个项目对COVID-19量表(FCS)的恐惧。之后,使用手段分析数据,频率,Mann-WhitneyU-tests,和相关系数。
未经调查:异性恋受访者中来自朋友的社会支持与COVID-19相关的恐惧呈负相关,R=-0.219,p=0.029。在LGBTQ+受访者中搜索与COVID-19相关恐惧呈正相关的含义,R=0.395,p=0.016。异性恋受访者对上帝的信仰(U=1,004,p<0.001)和安全感(U=1,110.5,p<0.001)也比LGBTQ同行更高。
未经调查:这些研究结果表明,来自朋友的社会支持对异性恋青年的COVID-19相关恐惧有保护作用,但对LGBTQ+没有保护作用。此外,对意义的高度搜索会加剧LGBTQ+中与COVID-19相关的恐惧。最后,这些发现可以解释为对LGBTQ+的歧视率高于异性恋青年。因此,随着社会从大流行中恢复,需要对性别敏感的心理保健来解决年轻人的恐惧。
UNASSIGNED: The youth is a vulnerable population to COVID-19-related fear. Among them, those with LGBTQ+ identities are at higher risk. Given the posited protective effects of spirituality and social support on fear, this study explored their effects on COVID-19-related fear among heterosexual and LGBTQ+ youth.
UNASSIGNED: This cross-sectional study recruited 137 respondents Filipinos aged 18-30 years old. The respondents answered a survey containing a sociodemographic questionnaire, 12-items Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), 20-items Core Dimensions of Spirituality Questionnaire (CDSQ), and 7-items Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCS). After, the data were analyzed using means, frequencies, Mann-Whitney U-tests, and correlation coefficients.
UNASSIGNED: Social support from friends was negatively correlated with COVID-19-related fear among heterosexual respondents, R = -0.219, p = 0.029. Search for meaning positively correlated with COVID-19-related fear among LGBTQ+ respondents, R = 0.395, p = 0.016. Heterosexual respondents also have a higher belief in God (U = 1,004, p < 0.001) and feelings of security (U = 1,110.5, p < 0.001) than their LGBTQ+ counterparts.
UNASSIGNED: These findings suggest that social support from friends is protective against COVID-19-related fear among heterosexual youth but not among LGBTQ+. In addition, a high search for meaning can heighten COVID-19-related fear among LGBTQ+. Finally, these findings can be explained by the higher rates of discrimination against LGBTQ+ than heterosexual youth. Thus, gender-responsive mental healthcare is needed to address the youth\'s fears as society recovers from the pandemic.
