The COVID-19 worldwide pandemic has forced individuals into an unnatural way of life. Families with children experience unique stressors, such as school closures, disrupted childcare arrangements, requirement of parents to uptake additional responsibilities such as homeschooling, possible financial strain, and lack of breathing space between family members. The adjustments required of parents and children during a pandemic presumably impacts the psychosocial wellbeing of parents and children in different ways. To better under the psychosocial consequences of pandemics on parents, children, and youth, this scoping review used Arksey and O'Malley (2005) five-stage framework to examine the existing research literature on Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Influenza Type A virus (H1N1), and COVID-19 to answer the following two research questions: (1) What are the psychosocial consequences of pandemics on parents of children and youth? (2) What are the psychosocial consequences of pandemics on children and youth? With the application of inclusion criteria, 29 articles were selected for analysis. Four major themes, including sub-themes emerged: 1) Each family members’ emotions influence one another; 2) Parents experience greater levels of psychosocial problems than adults without children; 3) During a pandemic, parents require informal (social) and formal (specialized professional) support and; 4) Psychosocial consequences of pandemics on children/youth are understudied, indicating the need for more research on children/youth under the age of 20 years. Clinical prevention and intervention suggestions to support the psychosocial wellbeing of parents, children and youth during a pandemic are discussed.

COVID-19 全球大流行迫使人们过着不自然的生活方式。有孩子的家庭会经历独特的压力源，例如学校停课、托儿安排中断、父母需要承担额外的责任（例如在家上学）、可能的经济压力以及家庭成员之间缺乏喘息空间。大流行期间父母和孩子所需的调整可能会以不同方式影响父母和孩子的社会心理健康。为了更好地了解流行病对父母、儿童和青少年造成的心理社会后果，本范围界定审查使用 Arksey 和 O'Malley（2005 年）的五阶段框架来检查关于严重急性呼吸系统综合症 (SARS)、A 型流感的现有研究文献病毒（H1N1），和 COVID-19 来回答以下两个研究问题：(1) 流行病对儿童和青少年父母的社会心理影响是什么？(2) 流行病对儿童和青少年的社会心理影响是什么？应用纳入标准，选择了 29 篇文章进行分析。出现了包括子主题在内的四大主题：1）每个家庭成员的情绪相互影响；2) 父母比没有孩子的成年人经历更严重的社会心理问题；3) 在大流行期间，父母需要非正式（社会）和正式（专业）支持；4) 流行病对儿童/青少年的社会心理后果研究不足，表明需要对 20 岁以下儿童/青少年进行更多研究。
