Psychosocial Impact in the Post-pandemic Era

Dear Colleagues,

The unprecedented challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic have significantly impacted various aspects of society, including mental health, social dynamics, and well-being. Considering these circumstances, we are pleased to announce a Special Issue titled “Psychosocial Impact in the Post-pandemic Era”. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for researchers to explore and contribute original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that shed light on the psychosocial effects of the pandemic, as well as strategies for addressing them. We invite submissions covering a wide range of topics related to the psychosocial impact of the pandemic, including, but not limited to, mental health implications and coping mechanisms; social isolation and loneliness; changes in interpersonal relationships and social dynamics; socioeconomic disparities and their effects on mental well-being; psychological resilience and adaptation strategies; impacts on vulnerable populations, including children, the elderly, and marginalized groups; innovative interventions and support systems for promoting psychosocial well-being; approaches from emergency and disaster psychology; and impacts on the education or educational processes of children and adolescents, among other aspects. Researchers from diverse disciplines, including psychology, sociology, public health, and related fields, are encouraged to submit their contributions. Submissions may include original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, theoretical perspectives, and brief reports.
