MAMANI-BENITO, Oscar Javier; TITO-BETANCUR, Madona e CARRANZA ESTEBAN, Renzo Felipe. Financial stress and fear of COVID-19 as predictors of psychological distress in small and medium-sized Peruvian entrepreneurs. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.3, pp.298-306. Epub 20-Dez-2021. ISSN 3020-1160.
Objective:
To determine whether financial stress and fear of COVID-19 are predictors of psychological distress in small and medium Peruvian entrepreneurs.
Material and methods:
A cross-sectional, predictive study in which 305 Peruvian entrepreneurs from sectors such as education, transportation, infrastructure, commerce, food, automotive and tourism voluntarily participated. Data were collected through a scale of financial stress, a scale of fear of COVID-19 and a scale of psychological distress.
Results:
The results of the multiple regression analysis show an adequate model fit (F-test = 168,842, p < 0,001), where financial stress (β = 0,48, p < 0,01) and fear of COVID-19 (β = 0,31, p < 0,01), are variables that significantly predict psychological distress (adjusted R2 = 0,52).
Conclusion:
financial stress and fear by COVID-19 are predictors of psychological distress in small and medium Peruvian entrepreneurs.
