“…COVID-19 스트레스는 다차원적이고, 문화적 환경에 따라 다른 특성이 있으며, 한국인을 대상으로 한 연구에 의하면 3가지 요인으로 나타났다[ 19 ]. 주변 환경 접촉을 통해 본인이 COVID-19에 감염되거나, 이로 인해 주변 사람들에게 영향을 미치는 것 등에 대한 두려움, 사회적 거리두기 방역지침으로 일상 생활 및 문화 생활, 사회적 대면 접촉이 줄어들면서 경험하는 어려움, 그리고 방역지침을 준수하지 않고 확산의 원인이 되는 특정 상황 및 개인에 대한 분노 등이며, 특히 타인에 분노의 경우는 서양과 달리 한국의 집단주의적 성향이 반영되어 나타나는 특성이다[ 19 , 20 ].…”

Purpose: Uncertainty and restrictions on daily life have increased fear, stress, and depression during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Depression is the most common mental health problem in pregnant women. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the levels of fear and stress related to COVID-19 experienced by pregnant women, as well as their levels of depression, and to examine the factors associated with depression during pregnancy.Methods: This was a cross-sectional, correlational study conducted among 153 pregnant women who visited a maternity hospital in Busan, South Korea. A self-reported questionnaire was used for data collection from December 18, 2021 to March 8, 2022. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Results: Pregnant women experienced a moderate level of fear related to COVID-19, with an average score of 21.55±4.90. The average score for depression during pregnancy was 14.86±11.10, with 50.3% of the participants experiencing depression (13). The factors associated with depression during pregnancy were fear of COVID-19, contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19, being in the third trimester of pregnancy, high stress levels due to difficulties experienced from social distancing measures, and unintended pregnancy. These five statistically significant factors explained 35.0% of variance in depression during pregnancy.Conclusion: Considering the prevalence of depression in pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to develop interventions to reduce anxiety by providing correct information and alleviating the stress of social distancing.
