| Objective To explore the relationships between COVID-19 stressing and depression， anxiety， and the influences mechanism of perceived social support in the links.Methods A sample of 3 219 undergraduate students were recruited to complete the questionnaire and scales online， including COVID-19-Stressing Questionnaire， Perceived Social Support Scale （PSSS）， Self-rating Depression Scale （SDS） and Self-rating Anxiety Scale （SAS）. And 160 students of them were enrolled to examine the mediation role of perceived social support in the relation of COVID-19 stressing， depression and anxiety by asking participants to read priming stories.Results ①There were differences between males and females in each variable （P<0.01）. COVID-19 stressing showed significant difference among different age groups （P<0.01）. Stressing， depression and anxiety levels yielded a difference between urban students and rural students （P<0.01）. There were differences between enforced isolation and home isolation in stressing and depression （P<0.05 or 0.01）. ②COVID-19 stressing had a positive correlation with perceived social support， depression and anxiety （r=0.158~0.235， P<0.01）， meanwhile， perceived social support showed a negative correlation with depression and anxiety （r=-0.312、-0.210， P<0.01）. ③The perceived social support had a negative prediction on depression and anxiety. ④Perceived social support mediated the relationship between COVID-19 stressing and depression and anxiety （Effect=-0.044， -0.031， P<0.01）. ⑤Perceived social support moderated the link of COVID-19 stressing and depression （β=0.163， P<0.01）.Conclusion The current research demonstrates that the COVID-19 stressing has an impact on perceived social support， depression and anxiety， and perceived social support can induce the negative effect of COVID-19 stressing on undergraduate students. In addition， perceived social support can regulate the relationship between COVID-19 stressing and depression， but it has no significant regulatory effect on the relationship between epidemic stress and anxiety， which further indicates that the anxiety is irrelevant to the interpersonal support. |
