T17 0-15 Sentence denotes 1 Introduction
T18 16-148 Sentence denotes From COVID-19, MERS and SARS to H1N1, Zika and Ebola, people around the world have been facing rampant waves of infectious diseases.
T19 149-229 Sentence denotes New pandemics are anticipated to occur at an increasing frequency (Wolfe, 2011).
T20 230-338 Sentence denotes Yet the current understanding of how an outbreak influences people's psychological well-being is incomplete.
T21 339-699 Sentence denotes Much prior research has focused on well-being differences across, for example, gender (Wood, Rhodes, and Whelan, 1989), age (Steptoe, Deaton, and Stone, 2015), degrees of social connectedness (Myers, 1999), income levels (Kahneman and Deaton, 2010), individual dispositions (Diener and Seligman, 2002), and consumption patterns (Dunn, Aknin, and Norton, 2008).
T22 700-865 Sentence denotes However, relatively little is known about how an increasingly common phenomenon—epidemic outbreak—impacts emotional well-being (Lu et al., 2020, Zhang et al., 2020).
T23 866-970 Sentence denotes Even less is known about the factors that may worsen or protect emotional well-being during an outbreak.
T24 971-1142 Sentence denotes Identifying these factors is critically important, as they inform policies and interventions aimed at protecting people's psychological well-being in the age of pandemics.
T25 1143-1302 Sentence denotes We sought to add to this understanding through two large-scale nationwide surveys conducted in China immediately before versus during the coronavirus outbreak.
T26 1303-1405 Sentence denotes We found that the onset of the epidemic in China led to a 74% decline in overall emotional well-being.
T27 1406-1555 Sentence denotes Individuals who were residing near the epicenter of the outbreak, of an older age, or married, experienced a steeper decline in emotional well-being.
T28 1556-1767 Sentence denotes This suggests that factors associated with, respectively, the likelihood of contracting the disease, extent of potential harm, and relational issues are moderators of well-being deterioration during an epidemic.
T29 1768-2020 Sentence denotes Perhaps more importantly, we found that, during the coronavirus outbreak, individuals’ perceived level of knowledge about coronavirus infection was a stronger “protector” of their emotional well-being than the actual amount of knowledge they possessed.
T30 2021-2195 Sentence denotes We propose that this is because a higher level of perceived knowledge can lead to a stronger sense of control, which in turn protects emotional well-being during an outbreak.
T31 2196-2444 Sentence denotes This proposition was supported by the results of our analyses: sense of control was a mediator of the impact of perceived knowledge on emotional well-being (even after controlling for actual knowledge as well as demographic and economic variables).
T32 2445-2595 Sentence denotes The finding thus suggests that factors boosting sense of control can alleviate the detrimental effect of an epidemic outbreak on emotional well-being.
