Abstract

Background: The COVID‐19 pandemic in Ireland resulted in a nationwide quarantine on March 27, 2020. This study represents the first assessment of rates of anxiety and depression in the general population of Ireland during the pandemic. Aims: Our first aim was to estimate the probable prevalence rates of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and depression and to identify sociodemographic risk factors associated with screening positive for GAD or depression. Our second aim was to determine if COVID‐19 related anxiety was highest amongst those in society at greatest risk of morality from COVID‐19. Method: Self‐report data were collected from a nationally representative Irish sample ( N = 1041) online between March 31 and April 5; the first week of the nationwide quarantine measures. Recognized cut‐off scores on the GAD‐7 and PHQ‐9 were used to estimate rates of GAD and depression. Correlates of screening positive for GAD or depression were assessed using logistic regression analysis. Results: GAD (20.0%), depression (22.8%) and GAD or depression (27.7%) was common. Screening positive for GAD or depression was associated with younger age, female sex, loss of income due to COVID‐19, COVID‐19 infection and higher perceived risk of COVID‐19 infection. Citizens aged 65 and older had significantly higher levels of COVID‐19 related anxiety than adults aged 18–34. Conclusions: Initial results from this multi‐wave study monitoring changes in population anxiety and depression throughout the pandemic indicate that GAD and depression were common experiences in the population during the initial phase of the COVID‐19 pandemic.

The presence of an acquaintance infected with COVID-19 in the immediate environment is one of the predictive factors of depression.
“The presence of an acquaintance infected with COVID-19 in the immediate environment is one of the predictive factors of depression (Ghazawy et al. 2020, Hyland et al. 2020, Xiong et al. 2020).”

The regression results (p. 12) and Discussion (pp. 13–14) associate having a loved one with a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 infection with screening positive for anxiety/depression. They do not establish an association with depression alone or specify that the infected person was an acquaintance in the respondent’s immediate environment. (LLM, conf=0.86)

The 18-24 age group has been shown to have higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress during the pandemic period, and there is a relationship between the quarantine period and depression, anxiety, and stress levels.
“In the literature, the 18-24 age group has been shown to have higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress during the pandemic period, and there is a relationship between the quarantine period and depression, anxiety, and stress levels (Ghaza -wy et al. 2020, Hyland et al. 2020, Shah et al. 2021).”

Table 1 (p. 17) shows that adults aged 18–24 had the highest rate of screening positive for combined anxiety/depression during Ireland’s early quarantine. The paper does not report stress levels or test whether the length of quarantine was related to these outcomes. For COVID-19-specific anxiety, it instead reports higher levels among adults aged 65 and older than among those aged 18–24 (COVID-19 anxiety, p. 12). (LLM, conf=0.90)

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.
