The immediate impact of lockdown measures on mental health and couples' relationships during the COVID-19 pandemic-results of a representative population survey in Germany

Cedric Sachser et al.

Summary: This study examined the impact of lockdown measures during the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health and relationship quality in a representative sample of the German population. Results showed that the effect of lockdown on mental health problems varied by age and household income, while relationship quality did not significantly differ between pre-lockdown and lockdown periods but varied by age group. Further studies in countries with more severe lockdown measures are needed to inform decision makers about the psychological effects of lockdown.
