摘要
自然灾害引发的民众心理危机,是政府和学术界共同关注的重大现实问题。聚焦新冠疫情期间不同性别和阶层民众的心理健康状况及其差异。通过分析2020年武汉"封城"期间采集的居民生活状况调查数据,研究发现:第一,女性的抑郁程度显著高于男性,育儿压力会加剧父母的心理抑郁;个体的社会经济地位越低,抑郁程度越高。第二,交互效应表明,育儿压力会额外加剧30岁以下年轻女性群体的心理抑郁程度。第三,养育压力对女性心理健康的负面冲击,主要集中在较低社会阶层,中、高社会阶层的女性没有形成附加劣势。以上分析表明,新冠疫情期间人们的心理健康水平存在显著的性别差异和阶层分化,未来政策研究需要特别关注女性、育儿家庭和低社会阶层等脆弱性群体的心理疏导与生活帮扶工作。
The psychological crisis caused by natural disasters and its underlying mechanisms are important issues of concern for both the government and academia.This paper focuses on the mental depression and its differentiation by gender and class during the COVID-19 in Wuhan.Using the survey data collected during the city’s lock-down in 2020,we found that,first,women experienced significanly higher more depression than men,and those with children experienced in higher mental disorder than those without.Moreover,the lower the socioeconomic status is,the higher the level of depression is.Second,the interaction effect suggests that parenting stress exacerbates psychological depression among women,particularly among those under 30 years old.Third,the negative impact of parenting stress on women’s mental health is concentrated in the lower social classes,whereas such effects do not exist among the middle and upper social classes.These findings suggest that there were significant gender and class differences in the mental health during the pandemic.The future policy research should pay special attention to psychological counselling and life support for vulnerable groups,i.e.,women,families with children and low social classes.
