Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Mental Health in Pandemics - Chapter 8: Modeling the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and socioeconomic factors on global mobility and its effects on mental health

Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Mental Health in Pandemics
A Computational Approach
2022, Pages 189-208

This research has some implications for the research community. First, an implication from our result is that there is an inverse relationship between change in mobility and COVID- 19 variables. Second, it can be observed that the implementation of stringent policy measures on different forms of mobility helped in reducing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, with the increased stringency index, there was an adverse impact on people's mental health around the globe.
