  • Prevention behaviors (social distancing, hand washing, use of a mask, isolation) can increase the risk of presenting mental illnesses such as anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder.

    “Prevention behaviors (social distancing, hand washing, use of a mask, isolation, among others) can increase the risk of presenting mental illnesses such as anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, etc. [4,5,6,7].”

    From Coping strategies, anxiety and depression in ocd and schizophrenia: Changes during covid-19 (2021) · cites this paper as [5]

    In the paper’s discussion of COVID-19 and OCD (passage 1; page not provided), the authors suggest that more people might develop OCD and note that recommended handwashing and avoidance can resemble OCD symptoms. They do not say that prevention behaviors themselves increase the risk of anxiety disorders or PTSD, or discuss mask use as a cause. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
