According to Choi et al. (2021), Covid-19 significantly impacted Koreans' psychological well-being, encompassing different demographic characteristics, including region, gender, and age. The Covid-19 pandemic constituted a paradigm shift in various areas of life, including the economy, religion, education, travel, politics, international relations, and education. Individuals' quality of life and social lives were significantly compromised due to the outbreak, as social contact was greatly discouraged and prohibited. The authors argue that the implications of the Covid-19 crisis on individuals' life quality and well-being are well-established in scholarly evidence. There has been an increased prevalence of mental concerns, including stress and depression, during the outbreak. Given the complexity of measuring the general landscape of mental shifts due to Covid-19, Choi and colleagues sought to examine Koreans' routine well-being and life quality amid the outbreak. This entailed measuring changes in life satisfaction, negative affect, positive affect, as well as life meaning during the health crisis. It was established that the Covid-19 outbreak led to significant changes in life satisfaction, positive affect, negative affect, and life meaning during the study timescale (Choi et al., 2021).
These findings relate to this week's course and readings because the stress process and subsequent impact on an individual's mental health is complex, with the potential of negatively affecting an individual life quality across the lifespan. The longer the individuals are subjected to unexpected events and unpredictable environments, the higher the potential for developing irreversible implications on their capacity to cope and their memory in the long term (Choi et al., 2021). The causes of stress and deteriorated life quality are crucial for healthcare professionals, particularly when evaluating preventive techniques, treatment options, and interventions, as well as offering the best course of action to address such abrupt changes in the community.
