Abstract
The study investigated the association of family functions with psychological problems and fear of COVID-19 during pregnancy. In a cross-sectional, 385 pregnant women completed three questionnaires including Family APGAR, Symptom Checklist-25 (SCL-25), and Fear of COVID-19. The family function was a significant negative predictor of psychological distress. The findings highlight the role of family function in mental health of pregnant women during pandemic of COVID-19. The results suggest that educating women, their family, and health care providers about the benefits of enhancing family function may facilitate reduction of psychological distress of pregnant women.
