| dc.description.abstract | This study examined the psychological and behavioural impact of media use and trust on mental states and behaviour. We examined the effects of both traditional and new media, and included the effects on social and psychological states associated with a lockdown. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 339 participants. Media use, government and scientific trust, conflict and compliance, as well as a range of emotional and mental states were examined. The hypotheses were tested using structural equation modelling. Results reveal that use of traditional media, rather than new media, was significantly associated with fear of Covid-19. Among social media, only Facebook use had a significant negative relationship with psychosocial negativity. Compliance with preventive measures was predicted only by trust in science. Higher trust in government was related to lower levels of fear and psychosocial negativity, which, in turn, were positively associated with depression. The results demonstrate that different media can alleviate or exacerbate negative emotions and it is important to discern their effects. They also show how social and psychological states during homPe confinement may further impact mental health and affect interpersonal relationships. | |
