 note = {The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has quickly spread around the world and the “every- day life we took for granted” has completely changed. Under these circumstances, there is fear of the effect of COVID-19 on various aspects of our mental health. However, studies that have clarified the specific stress and effects associated with it and the actual conditions and characteristics, are cur- rently limited in number.
Therefore, in this study we conducted a survey of 83 university students with the aim of clarify- ing the specific nature of the stress associated with the spread of COVID-19 infection and clarifying the characteristics and actual conditions associated with COVID-19 infection. The study focuses on two aspects - the “fear of COVID-19 infection” that individuals have, as well as an individualʼs “obsessive-compulsive tendencies as a personality characteristic”.
The results demonstrate that that there are three categories of stressors associated with the spread of COVID-19 infection, namely, “stressors associated with self-imposed control of behavior and activities”, “stressors associated with the awareness of risk of infection”, and “stressors associated with changes in the situation”.
Furthermore, regarding the relationship between the fear of COVID-19 infection and obsessive- compulsive tendencies, it was clarified that persons with a strong sense of fear of COVID-19 infection also tended to have statistically significantly higher checking and cleaning scores.},
