In addition to the serious physical and medical effects on individuals, the
COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have short- and long-term psycho-social
consequences, especially for young people. Nowadays, with psychological problems
becoming more widely recognized in adolescents, it is possible that the fear and
anxiety caused by the pandemic will trigger various anxiety disorders, OCD and
similar negative outcomes. Considering that psychological qualities such as
emotional reactivity and experiential avoidance observed in adolescents may
increase the risk of such psycho-social disorders, in this study the relationship
between fear of COVID-19 and OCD was investigated in a Turkish sample of 598
adolescents, and the mediating role of emotional reactivity, experiential
avoidance and depression-anxiety in this relationship was examined. The data
collection was performed online rather than in person because of the COVID-19
threat. A structural equation model was used to determine the direct and indirect
predictive effects between variables in data analysis. The results of the study
show that the effect of COVID-19 fear on OCD is mediated by emotional reactivity,
experiential avoidance and depression-anxiety.
