Associations Between COVID-19 Anxiety Syndrome and Pandemic Fatigue in a Post-Lockdown Context: The Roles of Community and Personal Resilience
Abstract
Purpose: Pandemic fatigue has become a significant public health challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the mechanism of COVID-19 anxiety syndrome on it and its components remains unclear. It has not yet fully clarified whether and how community resilience and personal resilience can play a key role in the post-lockdown context. This study aims to evaluate the association between COVID-19 anxiety syndrome and pandemic fatigue, and to investigate the underlying effects of community resilience and personal resilience. Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was conducted with 1209 participants recruited via stratified sampling in Xi'an. They completed demographic characteristics, Pandemic Fatigue Scale, COVID-19 Anxiety Syndrome Scale, Conjoint Community Resiliency Assessment Measurement, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, and ANOVA were used to examine demographic differences in pandemic fatigue. Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple liner regression were employed to analyze the associations among COVID-19 anxiety syndrome, community resilience, personal resilience, and pandemic fatigue.
