How did Berliners feel and react during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Changes in aspects of mental health, resilience and social cohesion
The CovSocial project aimed, in a first phase, to shed light on crucial pandemic-related changes in assessing longitudinally many markers of mental health, resilience and social cohesion in a large sample of Berliners throughout the many lock-downs in the yeas of 2020/21. In a second phase, we investigated whether we could reduce the increased loneliness and psychological vulnerability observed in Berliners by simple 10-weeks mindfulness-based or dyadic socio-affective online mental trainings.
