“…With regard to the reports, as a specific interview was not carried out with the patients, a considerable amount of residual information from textual construction and contextualization interfered with the results. We are also aware that the lexical interpretation and associations within a particular cluster rely on the inherent subjectivity of the person conducting the study (Góes et al, 2021 ; Monteiro et al, 2021 ; Lima et al, 2022 ). The exploratory and qualitative methodologies of the study provide different interpretations; however, as the data from this study guarantees anonymity and cannot be nominally published, we provide as much information as possible.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented burdens on individuals and communities around the world. The isolation, fear, and uncertainty caused by the virus has led to increased rates of anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. The pandemic has also had a disproportionate impact on individuals and communities with low income and socioeconomic status.ObjectiveTo shed light on the consequences of the pandemic on individuals from minorities and low-income areas, we investigate the main reasons that led patients who were referred to a social clinic of a private university in Rio de Janeiro to seek psychological treatment before (2019) and during the pandemic (2020 and 2021).MethodsWe conducted a quanti-qualitative study with a lexical analysis that evaluated 549 complaint forms of patients seeking treatment in these two distinct periods. Our analyses included descending hierarchical analysis (DHA) and correspondence factor analysis (CFA).ResultsFamily dynamics and communication factors play a dominant role in the reason for seeking therapy and psychological treatment. Additionally, our study suggested an increase in anxiety and panic attacks among other mental health issues associated with grief and losses during the pandemic years.ConclusionBased on these analyses, we can begin to identify a few changes in the main demand and redirection of complaints of patients during the period of COVID-19.

Qualitative research methodology provides an effective way to explore participants' perceptions and unlock their experiences. In multicultural research settings, particularly in social sciences (e.g., sociology, psychology, theology, etc.), there is a strong tendency among qualitative researchers to collect the required data through interviews. This study employs qualitative research methodology, particularly lexicometric analysis via the IRaMuTeQ software, to analyze text data from semi-structured interviews. This software allows for detailed statistical analysis of the text corpus, including classic text analysis, specificity analysis, similarity analysis, and word cloud. In addition, this research aims to explore participants' perceptions and experiences through around twenty interviews, juxtaposing process and content in order to identify different themes. The IRaMuTeQ software helps to visualize lexicographic elements and ensure homogeneity between initial and resulting themes through correspondence factorial analysis.
