Diurnal dynamics of stress and mood during COVID-19 lockdown: a large multinational ecological momentary assessment study

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in severe disruption to people's lives as governments imposed national ‘lockdowns’. Several large surveys have underlined the detrimental short- and long-term mental health consequences resulting from this disruption, but survey findings are only informative of individuals' retrospectively reported psychological states. Furthermore, knowledge on psychobiological responses to lockdown restrictions is scarce. We used smartphone-based real-time assessments in 731 participants for 7 … Show more

“…In all analyses, we controlled for whether participants were engaged in free time at the time of the data entry ( free time : 1 = free time, 0 = not free time) and the time of the data entry ( EMA time ). These two variables were included in all models as stress and mood fluctuate across the day and are strongly influenced by whether individuals are working or not (Feneberg Anja et al, 2022 ). EMA time was centred to 10:00 on each day, and all other level‐1 variables were participant‐mean‐centred (Enders & Tofighi, 2007 ).…”

“…Similarly, we included the activity participants were engaged in and the time of day as covariates in all analyses. Thus, the results were not due to participants being more likely to engage in more effortful helping at a particular time of day or during certain activities, both of which influence momentary mood and stress (Feneberg et al, 2022).…”

“…Procedure and measures. We used data collected as part of a larger EMA project investigating the effects of the COVID-19 lockdown on behavior and well-being (Feneberg et al, 2022; for further explanation, see the preregistration at https://osf.io/6ynt3/). Data were collected during two lockdowns: in April and May 2020 (Burst 1) and in November and December 2020 (Burst 2).…”

“…In each model, we included the following variables: type of day, which indicated whether this was a baseline day (0) or a social isolation day (1); free time, a dummy-coded variable that indicated whether participants were engaged in free time at the time of the data entry (0) or whether they were working or studying (i.e., not free time, 1); and EMA time, the time of the assessment centered on participants' first assessment of the day. This was included in all models to control for diurnal changes in stress and mood (Feneberg et al, 2022). Next, to determine the influence on the number of hours spent in isolation on loneliness, desire for social contact, stress, fatigue, and the three mood measures, we included the interaction between type of day and EMA time in the above models.…”
