dc.description.abstract | The psychological impact of the pandemic has established the
urgent need to respond to the needs of the population in each culture, region
and context. Thus, in the Republic of Panama, the efforts of numerous
specialists have combined actions to attend to the crisis. This study aims to
obtain the factor structure and psychometric properties of the SARS-CoV-2
distress scale, which, together with eight other questionnaires, make up the
battery to measure the psychological and behavioral consequences of the
health crisis, based on the COVID Stress global survey initiative. We
employed a non-probabilistic sample of 765 Panamanian adults who
responded entirely online during the lockdown stage in March. The
instrument is composed of 24 items that proved to be valid and reliable for
the Panamanian sample. The main findings show that distress is linked to
uncertainty and the financial situation and not due to health or education. In
addition, single men with less schooling have higher levels of uncertainty
and distress in general. | en_US |
