Maternal mental health mediates the effects of pandemic-related stressors on adolescent psychopathology during COVID-19
During the COVID-19 pandemic, pandemic-related stressors, and maternal and adolescent mental health were assessed in two COVID-19 online surveys administered to families early in the pandemic (April to May 2020) and approximately 6 months later in November 2020 to January 2021. A community sample of 226 adolescents and their mothers were asked to complete the COVID-19 surveys, and of these, 143 adolescents (62 females, with a mean age of 14.33 years) and a caregiver completed online questionnaires between April and May 2020.
