During the pandemic, the elderly population was the most exposed to disease and changes in their daily lives. The objective was to determine the association between demographic factors, access to health services, sources of information, and physical symptoms in the mental health of the elderly during the COVID-19 pandemic-a study with 3828 older adults residing in nine cities in Peru.

Descriptive and analytical analysis was performed. Female sex, those aged between 60 and 79 years old, those with secondary education, those in their own home, those residing in an urban area, and those using public services of health predominated in this study. Likewise, 62.9% presented depressive symptoms; on the stress scale, an average of 27.81 (SD = 8.71), and on the anxiety scale, an average of 27.24 (SD = 6.04). Moreover, 65.1% reported fatigue, 62.2% had a headache, and 61.2% lack of energy.

RESUMO

Introducción: La procrastinación académica es la conducta negativa de postergar sin razón diversas tareas. Se ha relacionado con diferentes variables, sin embargo, se desconoce si los hábitos de lectura influyen en su reducción. Objetivo: Determinar la influencia de los hábitos de lectura en la procrastinación académica en estudiantes de enfermería. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, correlacional causal, con una muestra de 271 estudiantes de enfermería de primero a quinto año de formación en la Universidad Nacional de San Agustín de Arequipa, Perú. Se usaron dos instrumentos: el Inventario de hábitos de lectura de Muñoz y la escala de procrastinación de Busko. Se aplicó la prueba r de Pearson y el análisis de regresión lineal. Resultados: Las estudiantes de enfermería tuvieron edades que fluctúan entre los 16 y 25 años, con predominio del sexo femenino. Los hábitos de lectura fueron de nivel medio en el 66,79 por ciento y alto en el 30,99 por ciento de los casos. El 97,05 por ciento de estudiantes tuvo algún nivel de procrastinación, de los cuales 2,58 por ciento registró un nivel alto. Existe asociación significativa tanto entre hábitos de lectura y edad, como entre procrastinación y año de estudios. Conclusión: Los hábitos de lectura se relacionan de forma inversa con la procrastinación académica y predicen su disminución(AU)
