Note: Aside from the item asking “Amount of research shutdown” (see below), all other items were rated on a 10‐point scale from 0 (no concern/no stress) to 10 (extreme concern/extreme stress).

Abbreviations: M, mean; SD, standard deviation.

The “Amount of research shutdown” item was coded on a 6‐point scale as follows: 1 = 0% of research shutdown; 2 = up to 20% of research shutdown; 3 = up to 40% of research shutdown; 4 = up to 60% of research shutdown; 5 = up to 80% of research shut down; 6 = up to 100% of research shutdown.
