Resumo: The COVID-19 pandemic and its preventive methods related to social isolation and quarantine have pointed to a huge change in global behavior. The perception of the hazards of the virus and contamination, as well as obligatory routine changes have impacted negatively on the well-being and mental health of people. To handle this context, humans adopt strategies to cope and deal with the hazards and daily situations. However, there is a lack of studies and instruments which measure practical coping in COVID-19 Pandemics. Thus, this paper presents the development and evidence validity of the Pandemic Coping Scale (PCS), which is a two-factor instrument (Problem-Solving and Self-Protection Attitudes) that presented adequate psychometric measures (CVC > 80; RMSEA= 0,08, CFI = 0,94, TLI= 0,90; CR > 80). It is hoped that this scale may be useful and help professionals in the world to evaluate practical coping strategies during pandemics.

La percepción de los peligros del virus, así como los cambios de rutina obligatorios, impactaron negativamente en el bienestar y la salud mental de las personas. Así, los seres humanos adoptan estrategias para enfrentar los peligros y situaciones cotidianas. Sin embargo, faltan estudios e instrumentos que midan el afrontamiento práctico en las pandemias de COVID-19. Así, este artículo presenta el desarrollo y las evidencias de validez de la Escala de Afrontamiento a la Pandemia (EAP), un instrumento de dos factores (Resolución de Problemas y Actitudes de Autoprotección) que presentó medidas psicométricas adecuadas (CVC > 80; RMSEA = 0,08, CFI = 0,94, TLI = 0,90; RC > 80). Se espera que esta escala pueda ser útil a evaluar estrategias prácticas de afrontamiento durante pandemias.A pandemia do COVID-19 e seus métodos preventivos relacionados ao isolamento social e a quarentena, apontaram para uma enorme mudança no comportamento global. A percepção dos perigos do vírus, bem como as mudanças obrigatórias de rotina, impactou negativamente no bem-estar e na saúde mental das pessoas. Para lidar com esse contexto, o ser humano adota estratégias para enfrentar e lidar com os perigos e situações cotidianas. No entanto, faltam estudos e instrumentos que meçam o enfrentamento prático em Pandemias de COVID-19. Assim, este artigo apresenta o desenvolvimento e as evidências de validade da Escala de Enfrentamento em Pandemia (EEP), instrumento de dois fatores (Atitudes de Resolução de Problemas e Autoproteção) que apresentou medidas psicométricas adequadas (CVC > 80; RMSEA = 0,08, CFI = 0,94, TLI = 0,90; CR > 80). Espera-se que essa escala possa ser útil e ajudar profissionais do mundo a avaliar estratégias práticas de enfrentamento durante pandemias.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte2023-11-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://submission-pepsic.scielo.br/index.php/epsic/article/view/2398910.22491/1678-4669.20220026Estudos de Psicologia (Natal); Vol. 27 No. 3 (2022); 280-288Estudos de Psicologia (Natal); Vol. 27 Núm. 3 (2022); 280-288Estudos de Psicologia (Natal); v. 27 n. 3 (2022); 280-2881678-46691413-294Xreponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Natal)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNenghttps://submission-pepsic.scielo.br/index.php/epsic/article/view/23989/1335https://submission-pepsic.scielo.br/index.php/epsic/article/view/23989/1336Copyright (c) 2023 Estudos de Psicologia (Natal)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBessa, Jonatas ReisSousa, Roberto Beirão SantosTrindade, Ana BeatrizAbreu, José Neander Silva2023-11-23T18:06:12Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23989Revistahttps://submission-pepsic.scielo.br/index.php/epsicPUBhttps://submission-pepsic.scielo.br/index.php/epsic/oai||revpsi@cchla.ufrn.br1678-46691413-294Xopendoar:2023-11-23T18:06:12Estudos de Psicologia (Natal) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
