Resumen
Se analizan las diferencias relacionadas con la edad en el impacto psicológico del confinamiento a consecuencia de la Covid-19 en una muestra española. Se realizó un estudio longitudinal (N= 1.041) mediante una encuesta online con dos mediciones: a las dos y cinco semanas de la declaración del estado de alarma en España. Se evaluaron mediante cuestionarios de detección los síntomas de trastorno de estrés postraumático (TEPT), ansiedad y depresión, bienestar espiritual y soledad percibida. Se calcularon las medias y sus intervalos de confianza (95%) para todas las variables del estudio, para los tres grupos de edad: 18-30, 31-59, 60-80. Para cada variable se calcularon modelos lineales mixtos con pendientes aleatorias (tiempo anidado a los sujetos). El impacto psicológico persiste a lo largo del tiempo, aumentando en algunas de las variables. El grupo de mayor edad muestra menor impacto y mayor bienestar. Presentan menos síntomas de depresión, ansiedad y TEPT y menos soledad. Estos resultados pueden explicarse por la mayor resiliencia de este grupo para recuperarse de situaciones adversas, y el mayor número de estrategias de afrontamiento.
