新冠肺炎疫情给家长和教师带来了前所未有的压力，他们的精神和经济困难都对幼儿的健康产生了严重影响。我们借鉴了俄克拉何马州塔尔萨市现有的一项针对低收入家庭的队列研究，当时孩子们正在2020年上一年级。我们调查了新冠肺炎疫情爆发和学校停课前后的家长和教师--远程学习期间屏幕两侧的儿童照顾者。我们首先比较了大流行前后抑郁和食物不安全的父母和教师的比例。然后，我们在不同的模型中使用了大流行前父母和教师的特征来预测他们在大流行期间的抑郁和食物不安全。结果显示，新冠肺炎之后，家长和教师中的抑郁率都上升了，父母中的食物不安全率也增加了。对于家长和老师来说，新冠肺炎期间抑郁的最强预测因素是疫情爆发前有过抑郁经历。同样，新冠肺炎期间粮食不安全的最强预测者是事先经历过粮食不安全。这些结果表明，干预努力旨在查明低收入环境中儿童的照顾者，他们的精神和经济健康可能在这次乃至未来的灾难中受到最大程度的损害。
The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented strains on both parents and teachers, both of whose mental and financial hardships have serious implications for young children's wellbeing. We drew on an existing cohort study of families with low incomes in Tulsa, OK when children were in their Spring of first grade in 2020. We surveyed parents and teachers – children's caregivers on both sides of the screen during distance learning – before and after the COVID-19 pandemic hit and schools were closed. We first compared the proportion of parents and teachers who were depressed and food-insecure before and after the pandemic struck. We then used pre-pandemic characteristics of parents and teachers in separate models to predict their depression and food insecurity during the pandemic. Results showed that rates of depression among both parents and teachers spiked after COVID-19, and food insecurity rates also increased among parents. For both parents and teachers, the strongest predictor of depression during COVID-19 was having experienced depression before the pandemic. Similarly, the strongest predictor of food insecurity during COVID-19 was having experienced food insecurity beforehand. These results point intervention efforts towards identifying the caregivers of children in low-income contexts whose mental and financial wellbeing are likely to be most compromised during this and perhaps future disasters.
