| contents | <p>Mental perception of declaring a state of emergency and introducing measures of restricted movement by population largely depended on circumstances in which the respondents found themselves - such as housing, number and age of household members, type of job or profession. Restrictions imposed numerous challenges, insecurities and fears. Limited conditions of movement brought changes in the ways of communication and informing. The paper was created as a result of research in the subject of Mental Health and Psychosocial Support in Crisis, in PhD studies in the field of Disaster Risk Management and Fire safety, Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad. 765 respondents participated in the survey. Methodology was based on voluntary participation, an anonymous questionnaire and appropriate statistical processing. Respondents were asked to complete a questionnaire via email, Viber or WhatsApp. The largest number of respondents, about 52% lived in households with three or more members, and 9% of respondents lived alone. The dominant fear that arose among the respondents was concern for their loved ones, in about 70% of the total number of respondents. 27% of respondents during the observed period were afraid of going to the store or using public transport. Over 22% of respondents were afraid of being infected and 16% of respondents were afraid of being admitted to a covid hospital. The communication was significantly changed in the circumstances of the applied measures. It took place through channels that were available in conditions of limited movement. The highest percentage of respondents used mobile phones (91%), 72% used applications for communication on mobile phones (Viber, WhatsApp), 64% of respondents used social networks, while chat applications (such as Skype, Zoom) used about 37% of respondents. The way of informing was most often limited to household sources - TV and Internet. About 55% of respondents used conferences of crisis headquarters as a source, about 45% of respondents were informed through informative programs on television, 39% via Internet and about 38% of respondents followed website and announcements of the Ministry of Health. Almost two years of pandemic crisis passed with the application of various measures depending on current epidemiological situation, and the challenges of combating fear and uncertainty among the population (overcoming infectious diseases) are still present today. The results of the research indicate the importance of further monitoring of this topic and the importance of preserving mental health in future crises.</p> |
