... Similarly, more recent surveys carried out among individuals confined at home due to COVID-19 have revealed that their level of anxiety increased the more they followed the news about the spread and impact of the COVID-19 virus [28]. Moreover, young people (21-40 years) [5,11], especially women with children at home [4,7,9,29], showed higher levels of anxiety, depression and stress. Finally, high levels of anxiety were found in people with relatives or friends with COVID-19 disease [7], and in people who had a history of medical problems and poor health [3,4,11]. ...
... School closures worsened the situation as parents had to deal with their children's education and learning [80]. Moreover, increased anxiety in parents during a forced lockdown may also be associated with a state of constant worry about the health and future of their children [29]. ...
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of home confinement/social isolation (i.e., lockdown), imposed to reduce large-scale spread of a disease in the population, on the mental health of individuals. Through an online survey during the lockdown (DL) related to COVID-19 (1085 respondents, 627 females, agerange: 18-82) (Italy, 23 April-2 May 2020), we revealed that situational factors, i.e., the presence of children at home and female gender, and psychological factors, i.e., a greater sense of isolation, lower perception of safety outside the home and higher trait anxiety, predicted higher levels of state anxiety (R 2 = 0.58). The same factors, but with young age instead of the presence of children, predicted higher levels of perceived stress (R 2 = 0.63). Then, these data were compared with those collected after the lockdown (AL) (174 respondents, 128 females, agerange: 19-78) (Italy, 1 July-31 October 2021). The results showed that along with a reduced sense of isolation (DL = 2.90 vs. AL = 2.10) and an increased perception of safety outside the home (DL = 2.63 vs. AL = 3.05), a reduction in state anxiety (DL = 45.76 vs. AL= 40.88) and stress appeared (DL = 18.84 vs. AL = 17.63). However, the situation was better for men than for women. Perceived self-efficacy emerged as a protective factor for mental health (R 2 range: 0.03-0.27). The results are discussed in light of the evidence on the effects of lockdown on individuals worldwide. These results may be used to make more educated decisions on targeted help for individuals who may be most adversely affected by the adoption of lockdowns in the future.
... Using a quantitative descriptive method and the GAD-7 instrument, the results showed that 63.08% of parents experienced moderate to severe anxiety. Furthermore, parental satisfaction with current parenting forms was low at 67.12%, while interest in new parenting forms was very high at 98.51% [22]. ...
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted various aspects of healthcare, including pediatric surgery. This study aimed to assess parental concerns and stress levels in pediatric surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic, identify factors associated with increased parental anxiety or concern, and provide recommendations for healthcare providers. A cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary pediatric hospital in Timisoara, Romania, involving 174 parents of pediatric patients requiring elective or emergency surgery, with a mean age of 37.6 (25–47) years, out of which 89.1% of respondents were women. Parental concerns were assessed using the Parental Concerns Questionnaire (PCQ), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10). Parents of children undergoing emergency surgery (n = 108) reported higher levels on the practical impact domain of the PCQ scale (3.4 vs. 2.2, p < 0.001), emotional impact (2.7 vs. 2.2, p = 0.002), and total PCQ score (9.5 vs. 7.7, p < 0.001) compared to parents of children undergoing elective surgery (n = 66). Parents in the emergent surgery group also reported higher anxiety scores on the HADS questionnaire (7.9 vs. 6.5, p = 0.009) and higher perceived stress and total score on the PSS-10 survey (7.8 vs. 5.6, p = 0.046) (10.5 vs. 9.1, p = 0.047), respectively. A significantly higher proportion of parents in the emergent surgery group were concerned about restricted visitation policies (p = 0.013) and reported delaying or considering delaying their child’s surgery due to the pandemic (p = 0.036). The results demonstrate heightened concerns, anxiety, and stress among parents of children undergoing emergency surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare providers should address parental concerns, provide clear communication, and ensure adequate support for families. Recommendations include enhancing information about COVID-19 precautions, reassuring parents about personal protective equipment availability, and facilitating family support within visitation restrictions.
This study described how the educators, both from public and private schools in Cabanatuan City, managed and survived the difficulties they experienced while battling the Covid-19 virus. The researcher used a descriptive phenomenological design for this study, of which an in-depth interview was conducted to generate qualitative data from the twelve (12) educators from public and private schools in Cabanatuan City. Thematic analysis was applied in emerging the five (5) themes, namely: (1) The Crossover of COVID-19 (Initial reaction of participants when infected), (2) Pyschosocial Distress Behind the Wall (Physical, Psychological, Social Difficulties including the Post Covid-Symptoms), (3) Conquering Adversaries (Coping Mechanism applied to survive Covid-19 infection) (4) Transcending Life’s Meaning (Life lessons learned from their Covid-19 Journey) and (5) Proposed Policy for Educational Institutions (Policies suggested based on their experiences). The findings of the study showed that: the phenomenon under study showed the educators’ resiliency through their faith and positivity, which enabled them to survive the difficulties they faced as Covid-19 patients. All these themes form a central idea that educators are in need of institutional support when faced with a health crisis, such as the pandemic, that can put their lives at risk. Based on the results, the researcher crafted a proposed institutional policy that will aid and support the employees in times of health crisis.
In today's world, parenting should be seen as proactive rather than reactive. Everyone's access to digital technology has increased the necessity of knowing and caring for it. Big data, the internet, and artificial intelligence-based information technology advancements have drastically altered human behaviour over time. The objective of this study was to conduct a technological analysis of millennial parents' use of artificial intelligence for their children and to investigate the many factors impacting working millennial parents' adoption of artificial intelligence for their children. This research serves both exploratory and descriptive purposes. It possesses a qualitative quality. The researcher received the primary data from the Delhi NCR region. The data was acquired with the help of a questionnaire. Parents from the millennial generation make up the respondents. Information was gathered from the parents of millennials via a questionnaire. 64 individuals responded. These are academic experts who work for academic organisations. They are research scholars, research associates, associate professors, and assistant professors. The respondents provided the researcher with well-written answers. Data analysis was carried out with the aid of R programming, in which Cronbach's alpha was evaluated for the reliability of the data. Further correlation between technological aspects and correlation Between factors impacting working millennial parents' adoption of artificial intelligence for their children. The results show that they are positive for adapting to artificial intelligence. At the moment, parents are enrolling their children in skill-development programs and buying them toys. They might merely take more away from that. Millennial parents feel protected when their kids use secure electronics. The learning and flexible nature of children's relationships with technology is another proof that artificial intelligence promotes the careers of the alpha generation. Parents employ parental control gadgets and settings to keep tabs on their kids' whereabouts online and what they're watching on YouTube or other apps. Finally, it is evident from the data gathered that the alpha generation will see great advancements in artificial intelligence.
