Abstract
We investigated how social support and anxiety affect feelings of gratitude for adolescents during a period of social distancing due to COVID-19. Social support predicted higher levels of gratitude. Gratitude is related to well-being and life satisfaction. Therefore our findings emphasize the importance of social support during social distancing.
