Association between the COVID-19 infodemic and depression symptom screening in older adults
older women frequently exposed to COVID-19-related information on television and social media for two- to six-hour periods showed depression symptoms. This study contributes to research on infodemics and mental health by addressing a research gap on the relationship between depressive symptom screening and the profile of exposure to COVID-19 information in a sample of older adults.
