Abstract

Introduction: Anxiety is one of the psychological effects of the COVID-19 epidemic on adolescents. The study examines the connection between teen anxiety during a pandemic and Covid-19 transmission prevention. Methods: Using a cross-sectional approach, this is descriptive correlation research. 168 Indonesian high school students in grades 7 through 12 made up the study’s entire sample. It was done through inadvertent sampling. The tool utilized was a questionnaire with 13 questions about adolescents’ understanding of Covid-19, including 10 questions about transmission anxiety. Results: In the transitional phase, teenagers’ anxiety was linked to the avoidance of Covid-19 transfer, according to a Spearman rank analysis (p 0.034; 0.05). Conclusion: Adolescents may feel anxious when they adapt to new routines. This is significantly related to actions taken to stop the spread of Covid-19.
