Abstract

This study will investigate stressors and stress alleviators for adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic. We predict academic stress, COVID-19 stress, prosocial behavior, social media, and time with pets will be associated with maladjustment. These results have implications for educators, policymakers, and families trying to navigate maladjustment during this time.
