Abstract

The present study examined the relation between poor sleep-quality and anxiety in relation to COVID-19. Poor sleep-quality, worry, and perceived stress were significant predictors of COVID-19-related anxiety, with the effects significantly more pronounced among females than males.  Findings elucidate anxiety-related risk actors in relation to COVID-19, and potentially future pandemics.
