dc.description.abstractAims: Pandemics have negative physical and mental effects on children and adolescents. However, our know-ledge about the factors related to the mental problems experienced in this process is limited. This study aimed to examine the association between resources of Covid-19 related information exposure and sociodemograph-ic characteristics and mental health problems during pandemics. Method: This study was carried out with 1030 children. The sociodemographic characteristics of the partic-ipants and exposure to information flow about the Covid-19 pandemic were recorded. Psychiatric problems were assessed using the DSM-5 Level-2 Anxiety Scale, DSM-5 Level-2 Depression Scale, DSM-5 Level-2 Sleep Disorder Scale. Results: The mean age was found as 10.45 years. It was determined that 33% of the participants had moder-ate/high level anxiety symptoms and 16.1% had moderate/high level depressive symptoms. Girl gender was related with anxiety-depression symptoms and sleep disorders, living in urban area was related with anxie-ty symptoms, increasing age and presence of death due to Covid-19 were associated with depression symp-toms. It was determined that information exposure through TV, internet and peer conversations is associated with anxiety-depression symptoms, and information exposure via internet and family conversations was as-sociated with sleep disorder symptoms. Conclusion: Measures to be taken for both sociodemographic risk factors and the negative consequences of resources of information exposure may reduce the negative psychological effects of pandemics on children.en_US
