Resumo

A pandemia da COVID-19 acarretou um impacto sem precedentes na vida da população mundial, funcionando como um importante desencadeador de problemas mentais. Uma vez que a adolescência confere vulnerabilidade a estressores ambientais, esse estudo analisou o impacto da pandemia na vida cotidiana, saúde mental e estratégias de enfrentamento adotadas por adolescentes brasileiros e possíveis correlações entre essas medidas. Foram aplicados um questionário de verificação do impacto da pandemia em diferentes aspectos da vida cotidiana (atividades acadêmicas, interação familiar/social e saúde física/mental), a Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) e o Coping Response Inventory – Youth Form (CRI-Y) em 215 adolescentes de uma escola brasileira de Ensino Fundamental/Médio. Os resultados mostraram que a pandemia afetou particularmente a interação familiar/social e aspectos relacionados à saúde física/mental, de adolescentes do sexo feminino. Para essa população, os níveis de depressão, ansiedade e estresse também foram maiores. Observou-se uma interação significativa entre gênero e estágio de escolaridade para a estratégia "Aceitação ou Resignação", com as meninas mais velhas, pontuando mais. Houve correlação significativa entre os sintomas de depressão, ansiedade e estresse e as estratégias de enfrentamento: "Análise Lógica", "Esquiva Cognitiva", "Aceitação-Resignação" e "Descarga Emocional". Os resultados sugerem que a pandemia impactou diferentes aspectos da vida cotidiana da população estudada e contribuiu para a piora da saúde mental em adolescentes do sexo feminino, influenciando a utilização de estratégias desadaptativas. Faz-se urgentemente necessário o desenvolvimento de intervenções eficazes, direcionadas a mudanças no enfrentamento ao estresse, para mitigar os efeitos negativos da COVID-19 em adolescentes.
