ABSTRACT. Employing recent research results covering COVID-19 gender‐based health worries, depressive symptoms, and extreme anxiety, and building my argument by drawing on data collected from ACHA, Ginger, GMU/CCCC, HMN, NHS, Pew Research Center, Statista, Strada Education Network, UPMC, and YPCCC, I performed analyses and made estimates regarding psychological effects and associated factors of COVID-19 perceived risk. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the collected data.
