Papel mediador de las redes sociales en la relación entre afrontamiento, ansiedad y depresión en situaciones de emergencia
Contenido principal del artículo
La sobreutilización de las redes sociales como medio de interaccionar con otras personas durante el COVID-19 podría tener consecuencias negativas para la salud mental en personas con determinados estilos de afrontamiento. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue el de analizar la relación entre afrontamiento, frecuencia de uso de las redes sociales y los niveles de ansiedad y depresión en adultos jóvenes durante la COVID-19. Se realizó un experimento en el que participaron 643 sujetos que completaron unos cuestionarios de afrontamiento (Cuestionario de Afrontamiento del Estrés; SCQ), ansiedad (Inventario de Ansiedad de Beck; BAI) y depresión (Inventario de depresión de Beck; BDI-IA). Además, se tomaron medidas de la frecuencia de uso de las redes sociales (F-RS: 1 hora o menos, 2-3 horas, 4-5 horas, más de 5 horas). Los sujetos que utilizaron con mayor frecuencia las redes sociales (> 5 horas vs < 5 horas) tuvieron mayores niveles de ansiedad, depresión, autofocalización negativa, expresión emocional abierta, y búsqueda de apoyo social. Por otro lado, la F-RS mediaba en la relación entre afrontamiento (autofocalización negativa, expresión emocional abierta, evitación, búsqueda de apoyo social) y los niveles de ansiedad y depresión. Estos resultados advierten del papel mediador negativo de la sobreutilización de las redes sociales en situaciones de emergencia sobre la salud mental, y aporta información relevante para establecer estrategias que permitan regular la intensidad afectiva de la población y mejorar la adherencia a las medidas preventivas.
