Mental Health during COVID-19 Pandemic: What Do We Know So Far?

Dear Colleagues,

Since its outbreak in December of 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our lives. Fear of infection combined with various epidemiological measures has affected our everyday functioning. Increased levels of fear, worry, stress and anxiety are expected during situations like these in which our lives are significantly changed and threatened. Due to this sudden change, there is an increased need for psychological services. However, in current times and the modern world we are living in, mental health professionals are faced with a wide spectrum of mental health challenges that are not necessarily related just to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hence, the adaptation of proper clinical psychodiagnostic and assessment tools is required.

This Special Issue calls for the submission of manuscripts related to the status of mental health in the modern world, and different factors (emotional, social, cognitive and physiological) associated with psychological well-being.
