Pre-pandemic financial problems and subsequent measures of anxiety symptoms across COVID-19, measured by the Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7 scale (GAD-7), across 5 time points in early adulthood (ages 28 to 30).
You could use this dataset to explore the impact of pre-pandemic financial problems on later anxiety trajectories across COVID-19. You could use the fin_probs variable fin_probs to see how trajectories differ, and even see how these trajectories might look after adjusting for by pre-pandemic levels of anxiety anx_pp.
There is 1 finacial problems variable one could use to split trajectories by:
fin_probs
Alternatively, there is 1 pre-pandemic anxiety variable one could use to split trajectories by:
anx_pp
