Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic drastically changed family life by working remote, closing schools/daycares and isolation measures. So far, little is known about the effects of restrictive government measures on family life. This unique project investigates and compares the effects of COVID-19 restrictions on parental esponse and the role of individual, family and contextual factors in 40 Western and non-Western countries. It provides insight into factors that may buffer or increase negative effects on family life (e.g., stress, resiliency, conflict and violence).
