TABLE 2.
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine significance of difference between those having direct and indirect exposure to the COVID-19 infection (n = 795).
| Exposure to the COVID-19 infection | Mean (S.D.) | Mean (S.D.) | Mean (S.D.) |
|
| |||
| f (%) | Anxiety | Stress | Spiritual connections |
| Not exposure (f = 570; 72%) | 6.72 (4.04) | 12.42 (5.58) | 14.71 (1.98) |
| (a)Indirect exposure (f = 172; 21%) | 6.62 (4.04) | 13.41 (5.26) | 14.4 (1.86) |
| (b)Direct exposure (f = 53; 7%) | 6.18 (3.31) | 12.06 (4.71) | 13.81 (1.89) |
| F(2,792) = 0.11(ns) | F(2,792) = 0.61(ns) | F(2,792) = 1.39(ns) | |
| (c)Partial Eta squared | 0.05 | 0.05 | 0.02 |
(a) Indirectly exposed: Family/friend member living with person got COVID-19 infection. (b) Person himself/herself diagnosed with COVID-19 infection; ns = non-significant. (c) Partial Eta squared values = Small effect size = 0.01; Medium effect size = 0.06; Large effect size = 0.14 or higher.
