Long-Term Psychological Effects of COVID-19 Lockdowns: A Comparative Analysis of Mobile Phone Addiction, Rumination, and Stress Among College Students in China and the Czech Republic
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
This study examines the psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic oncollege students in China and the Czech Republic, focusing on mobile phone addiction,rumination, and perceived stress between 2022 and 2023. During the peak of China's epidemiclockdown in 2022, it was hypothesized that such restrictive measures could lead to significantpsychological changes among the populace. We collected data using online questionnairesfrom 710 Chinese and 1075 Czech college students. The instruments employed were the ShortVersion of the Smartphone Addiction Scale (SAS-SV), the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), andthe Ruminative Responses Scale. Comparative analyses between the two years revealed thatChinese students exhibited a significant increase in mobile phone addiction, perceived stress,and rumination in 2023 compared to during the lockdown in 2022. Conversely, Czech studentsdisplayed no significant changes over the same period. These results suggest that thelockdown's psychological impacts on Chinese students are both long-term and delayed. Thestudy highlights the need for targeted mental health support for students in post-lockdownphases and raises critical questions about the balance between public health safety andpsychological well-being in pandemic responses. It underscores the importance of consideringthe broader and longer-term psychological consequences when implementing and liftinglockdowns. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the pandemic's impact onyoung adults and offers insights for policymakers and educational institutions preparing forfuture public health crises.
