Résumé

The aim of the study is to longitudinally analyse the effects of confinement derived from COVID-19 on the loneliness of thegeneral Spanish population. It was assessed by an online survey at three points in time: two weeks after the start of confinement (N=3480), one month after (N=1041) and two months after the return to normal (N=569). Measures were taken of sociodemographicvar-iables, loneliness, social support, depressive and anxious symptoms. To analyse the effect of the longitudinal measures, a mixed linear model (GLMM) was calculated for the solitude variable. Posthoc comparisons for the time variable were calculated using the marginal means esti-mated with Tuckey's correction. The analyses have been carried out using the R software (v3.5.6)and the lme4 and emmeans packages. The trend in loneliness scores is downward throughout the longitudinal study, decreasing thescoresin the third evaluation significantly (Z(T1-T2)=0.13, p= .045). The main predictors for loneliness are depressive symptomatology and social support.Greater attention needs to be paid to loneliness in these situations, in addition to presenting attention to associated depressive symptomatology and measures to strengthen social sup-port networks in these circumstances.
