Compared risks 0.793 (95% CI 0.772-0.814) times higher 1.071 1.042-1.100) than COVID-19. average annual increase 1.61%. During epidemic, girls (36.87%) that boys (28.64%), acceleration rate faster boys. rates age follows: 27.14% 1.09% (12-13 years), 33.99% 1.8% (14-15 36.59% 1.65% (16-18 years).

The unidimensional model GAD-7 showed adequate goodness-of-fit indices. Scalar measurement invariance was found gender and age. reliability score 0.90. positively associated with symptoms depression, negative affect, behavioral problems, negatively positive affect quality life.
