“…Lastly, we found that COVID‐19‐related stress exacerbated the indirect effect of child maltreatment and the direct impact of increased identity confusion on negative affect development in adolescents. Research has shown that the COVID‐19 pandemic has caused significant stress for families and youth (Corbett et al, 2021; Zhang et al, 2022). It is important to consider that adolescence itself is a critical period characterized by numerous stressors that can influence development in similar ways.…”

“…Future research should extend our results by determining the specific challenges (e.g., emotional, social, and academic adjustment) that rural adolescents confront in the context of the pandemic. Third, using a retrospective and self‐reported child maltreatment measure may have resulted in underreported maltreatment and bias (Martin et al, 2014; Zhang et al, 2022). As a result, the percentage of child maltreatment experienced by participants may be higher than that reported in the current study.…”

IntroductionExposure to childhood maltreatment may undermine the crucial developmental task of identity formation in adolescence, placing them at risk for developing negative affect. The current study investigated whether COVID‐19‐related stress intensified the indirect link between child maltreatment and adolescents' negative affect through identity confusion.MethodUsing multidimensional assessments of child maltreatment (threat vs. deprivation), the study included a sample of 124 adolescents (Mage = 12.89, SD = 0.79; 52% female) assessed before (January 2018 to March 2020) and during the pandemic (May to October 2020) in Georgia, United States. The majority of the participants were European American (78.8%), followed by African American (11.5%), Hispanic (3.8%), Asian/Pacific Islander (1.0%), and other (4.8%). We used structural equation modeling to test (a) the mediating role of identity confusion in the link between childhood maltreatment and negative affect and (b) whether COVID‐19‐related stress moderated these indirect effects. Simple slopes and Johnson–Neyman plots were generated to probe regions of significant interaction effects.ResultsThreat and deprivation predicted an increase in adolescent identity confusion. Additionally, childhood threat and deprivation were indirectly linked to adolescents' negative affect through increased levels of identity confusion. COVID‐19‐related stress significantly exacerbated the link between identity confusion and negative affect.ConclusionIdentity confusion is a mechanism underlying the link between child maltreatment and the development of negative affect in adolescence. Our results inform prevention and intervention programs that aim to reduce negative affect among adolescents who experience threatening and depriving rearing environments.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a prolonged impact on many people working in different sectors. This paper focuses on the psychological stress consequences of professionals working in the educational sector in Andalucía (Spain). Using a sample of 340 educators, this empirical paper identifies the antecedents and profiles of those that ended up with burnout vs. those that were able to develop resilience. Results from OLS regressions show that regardless of the origins of stress, the principal determinant of burnout is clearly a lack of support and a perception of an inability to control a situation. Furthermore, results also show that working sources have a higher impact on the configuration of high burnout, while family sources harm those who are more resilient (low burnout).

“…Children entering puberty are also more vulnerable to psychological problems like anxiety, stress, and risky behaviours due to prolonged isolation amid the COVID-19 pandemic (WHO et al, 2020). Children and adolescents have experienced significant changes in circadian stress due to the COVID-19 situation has resulted in a high linkage between child maltreatment and sleep problems among boys(Zhang et al, 2022).…”

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been extremely devastating for the children. They suffered not only in terms of facing physical health issues but also lack balance in maintaining overall wellbeing. The loss faced by children and adolescents during this crucial stage of life where the learning and growth shape the future life, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be overlooked even if the pandemic is over. The present paper discusses the severely disrupted areas of a child’s world during the second wave of the pandemic to highlight the fact that even a small hurdle in the way of ensuring optimal development could prove immensely disturbing for a dependent child, still in the process of exploring, learning about the environment and self, and how the children have adapted to these unforeseen challenges. The findings of the study revealed that though the impact of the pandemic could be direct or indirect, small-scale or extensive, the immediate need to derive eclectic solutions for the best interests of the children must be based on multi-dimensional approach.
