Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change from the Stress and anxiety to viral epidemics-6 (SAVE-6) at week 8
Time Frame: week 8
Save-6 is a questionnaire developed by South Korean scholars Chung et al. (2021) in 2021 to measure the stress and anxiety responses of ordinary residents to COVID-19. The questionnaire contains six questions, including six major symptoms of stress and anxiety in the general public in response to COVID-19. The save-6 scale obtained good internal consistency after use in Korea (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.815). The Save-6 scale was found to be a reliable, valid and useful simple measurement that could be applied to the general population.
Change from the Fear of COVID-19 scale (FCV-19) at week 8
Time Frame: week 8
The Fear of Coronavirus Scale is a questionnaire designed to measure the Fear, concern and anxiety of the general public regarding COVID-19. It was developed by Ahorsu et al. (2020) research and development. The questionnaire includes seven items of public fear of COVID-19 (item-total correlation (0.47 to 0.56)). More specifically, Reliability values such as internal consistency (α =.82) and test -- retest reliability (ICC =.72) were acceptable. The Fear of COVID-19 Scale, a seven-item scale, has robust psychometric properties. It is reliable and valid in assessing fear of COVID-19 among the general population and will also be useful in allaying COVID-19 fears among individuals.
