TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Influence of CoViD-19 pandemic uncertainty in negative emotional states and resilience as mediators against suicide ideation, drug addiction and alcoholism JO - International journal of environmental research and public health A1 - García-Rivera, Blanca Rosa A1 - García-Alcaraz, Jorge Luis A1 - Mendoza-Martínez, Ignacio Alejandro A1 - Olguín-Tiznado, Jesús Everardo A1 - García-Alcaráz, Pedro A1 - Aranibar, Mónica Fernanda A1 - Camargo-Wilson, Claudia SP - e12891 EP - e12891 VL - 18 IS - 24 N2 - This research uses structural equation modeling to determine the influence of uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic as an independent variable in the negative emotional states and resilience (as mediating variables) vs. drug addiction, alcoholism, and suicide ideation as dependent variables in 5557 students from a public state university in Northern Mexico. The five variables are related through eight hypotheses and tested using partial least squares. We used an adapted questionnaire sent by email in May 2020.

FINDINGS show that uncertainty facing the COVID-19 pandemic had a direct and significant influence on negative emotional states and a significant inverse effect on resilience; in the trajectory, drug addiction and alcoholism, and suicide ideation are explained.
