Undoubtedly, a pandemic is a crisis, which means that the lives of those who experience it will never be the same as before. It is certain that many people will suffer negative consequences, although observation alone does not provide sufficient evidence to confirm their occurrence. Therefore, it was decided to conduct research aimed at understanding the differences in the psychosocial effects of the pandemic between Poles in early, middle and late adulthood. Almost 300 people (n = 298) participated in the study conducted with the use of several research tools: The Fear of COVID-19 Scale in the Polish adaptation of Lewicka-Zelent and Czerski, the DJGLS Scale (in the Polish adaptation of P. Grygel, G. Humenny, S. Rbisz, P. witaj and J. Sikorska-Grygiel), the General Mood Scale and the Wojciszke and Barya Emotions Questionnaire, as well as the questionnaire by A. Lewicka-Zelent. The conducted analyzes proved that there are statistically significant differences between the compared groups of adults, especially in the severity of fear of COVID-19, experienced mood and emotions. |
