在英国成年人的大型（n=10918），全国性，纵向概率样本中，临床显著心理困扰的患病率从2019年的20.8%上升到2020年4月的29.5%，然后到9月显著下降到流行前水平（20.8%）。纵向分析表明，所有受调查的人口群体（年龄、性别、种族/族裔、收入）在大流行病爆发后的痛苦增加，随后显著减少。到2020年9月，所有群体的痛苦水平与大流行前的水平没有区别。这一复苏可能反映了放宽限制和心理适应大流行病要求的影响。
In a large (n=10918), national, longitudinal probability-based sample of UK adults the prevalence of clinically significant psychological distress rose from prepandemic levels of 20.8% in 2019 to 29.5% in April 2020 and then declined significantly to prepandemic levels by September (20.8%). Longitudinal analyses showed that all demographic groups examined (age, sex, race/ethnicity, income) experienced increases in distress after the onset of the pandemic followed by significant decreases. By September 2020 distress levels were indistinguishable from prepandemic levels for all groups. This recovery may reflect the influence of the easing of restrictions and psychological adaptation to the demands of the pandemic.
