Abstract

We hypothesized that loneliness would moderate the effects between depression and daily functional activities during COVID-19. Results indicated a significant interaction between higher ratings of total depression scores and lower ratings level of loneliness in terms of trouble keeping a daily routine. No other interactive effects were observed.
