Abstract

Highlights • Participants with anxiety-related disorders exhibited higher COVID-related stress than those with no mental health disorder.• Those with anxiety-related disorders exhibited higher COVID-related stress than those with mood disorders.• Those with anxiety-related or mood disorders were more likely to self-isolate than those with no mental health disorder.• Mental health interventions for COVID-19 need to be tailored to the needs of people with pre-existing mental health conditions.

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.
