COVID-19 이후 일상 변화에 대한 성인의 인식

초록

This study was undertaken to determine changes in daily life due to new infectious diseases such as COVID-19, the perception of COVID-19, and changes in psychological and emotional attitudes. Our research material was data collected from an online survey of 1,000 adults aged 19 and older. The survey was conducted by the Korea Press Promotion Foundation from August 21 to September 4, 2022, titled "People's Daily Changes After COVID-19". Of the total subjects, 512 adults in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon were analyzed according to gender. Considering changes in the household economy due to COVID-19, both men and women responded that the household economy became difficult and monthly income decreased due to COVID-19. Compared to pre-COVID-19 times, we determined an increase in health care and personal hygiene management in the lifestyles (p=.026), which may change after COVID-19 ends. When considering the influence of COVID-19 outbreaks on individuals, men distinguished COVID-19-related misinformation better than women(p=.001). The psychological and emotional states caused by COVID-19 were found to be "nervous angry(p<.001)", "infertility or frustration(p<.001)", "anxiety or anger(p=.029)", "worry or stress(p<.001), and "loneliness or depression(p<.001)". Women showed higher levels of mental distress as compared to men. Our results indicate that we should prepare for living "With-CORONA" rather than the end of COVID-19. Moreover, we need to be systematically prepared to live a "With-COVID" lifestyle rather than face an explosive spread of an unknown entity.
