PARENTING, mental health, and relationships DURING THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

In the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic, Americans are experiencing an unprecedented shift in their social relationships. For nearly all Americans, daily life has been significantly disrupted. Social distancing and social isolation mandates have resulted in less support from friends, neighbors, and loved ones. Schools are closed and many parents are spending more time with their children. These changes are happening during enormously stressful conditions with a high degree of economic uncertainty. These research briefs report on survey data collected from 562 Americans on March 24, 2020. The survey examined parenting, mental health, coping skills, and romantic relationships during the Coronavirus pandemic.
