- Brief Summary
This is an observational study examining the psychosocial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in seven low-and-middle income countries (Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Malaysia, Pakistan, Somaliland, and Turkiye). The data was obtained on standardised measures of wellbeing (WHO Well-Being Index), psychological distress (Kessler 10), post-traumatic stress (PTSD Checklist for DSM-5), post-traumatic growth (Posttraumatic Growth Inventory), and a novel pandemic-related stress (COVID Psychosocial Impacts Scale). Data was collected employing either a unilingual (in native language) or bilingual online survey (with English as a second language) from participants (N=2574) aged 18 and above using a non-probability convenient sampling. The findings enabled us to examine the psychosocial impacts of COVID-19, validate the translations of the CPIS and standardized measures; and determine the trajectory of study variables with pandemic exposure.
