Abstract:
The coronavirus pandemic and ensuing economic crisis have introduced a new and unique set of conditions that trigger stress in the United States population. Many individuals are concerned about contracting the virus and developing COVID-19 symptoms, worried about job loss, and experiencing other strains caused by stay-at-home orders. The SHADAC COVID-19 Survey, conducted between April 24 and 26, 2020, by NORC at the University of Chicago, asked a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults how they were coping with the stress caused by the pandemic. This brief highlights key results from the survey, relating to stress and coping mechanisms for a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults (age 18 and older). More information on the SHADAC COVID-19 Survey findings regarding worries about COVID-19 costs are available here.
