Summary
Для достижения поставленной цели исследования нами была разработана специальная психологическая анкета. Респондентам предлагалось ответить на вопросы относительно того, как влияет на различные стороны их жизни режим самоизоляции во время пандемии COVID-19, и какие способы совладания с ним они вырабатывают. На вопрос о том, сказывается (сказался) ли режим самоизоляции на психологическом самочувствии и как именно, респондентам предлагалось выбрать один из вариантов ответа: а) да, очень сильно, и только положительно (2 балла), б) да, в целом – положительно (1 балл), в) нет, не сказывается (не сказался) (0 баллов), г) да, в целом – отрицательно (−1 балл), д) да, очень сильно, и только отрицательно (−2 балла). Респондентам предлагалось также оценить блок утверждений относительно их наблюдений за появившимися в их характере и поведении изменениями. В психологической анкете ставился соответствующий вопрос и давалась следующая за ним инструкция: «Наблюдаете ли вы какие-то изменения в вашем характере и в вашем поведении, произошедшие (происходящие) во время самоизоляции? В опросе также приняли участие 15 представителей других государств (Беларуси, Украины, Казахстана, Турции, Китая, Германии, Австрии, Англии, Ирландии, Италии, Греции, Индонезии)
