Aims:To study sex differences in the psychosocial and economic impact of the restrictive measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 among the migrant origin and the general population in Finland.Methods:Cross-sectional MigCOVID Survey data (10/2020–2/2021; n=3668) were used. FinHealth 2017 Follow-up Study participants constituted the general population reference group ( n=3490). Sex differences in self-perceived impact of the restrictive measures during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 on the psychosocial and economic situation were examined with multivariate logistic regression, adjusting for sociodemographics and self-rated health.Results:The migrant origin population had higher odds for reporting weakened economic situation (odds ratio (OR) 5.41; 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.96–7.39), increased loneliness (OR 1.75; 95% CI 1.35–2.28), decrease in feelings of hope for the future (OR 1.70; 95% CI 1.33–2.19) and increased sleeping difficulties and nightmares (OR 1.98; 95% CI 1.34–2.92) than the general population. While the psychosocial and economic impact of COVID-19 was higher in women compared with men in the general population, findings were not fully replicated in the migrant origin population.Conclusions:Individuals of migrant origin faced a higher likelihood of experiencing adverse changes in both psychosocial and economic aspects during the pandemic, suggesting increased vulnerability linked to migrant origin. Additional research is required to delve into the intricate connections among gender, migrant origin, and the impact of COVID-19, aiming to enhance comprehensive understanding of the contributing factors. Vulnerabilities of different population groups should be identified and addressed when planning measures to reduce adverse societal impact in future crises.

与芬兰一般人口相比，COVID-19 流行病对移民人口（按性别）的社会心理和经济影响：一项基于人口的研究

目的：研究 2020 年 COVID-19 大流行期间限制性措施对芬兰移民来源和一般人群的社会心理和经济影响的性别差异。方法：横断面 MigCOVID 调查数据 (10/2020–2/ 2021 年；n=3668）被使用。 FinHealth 2017 随访研究参与者构成了一般人群参考组 (n=3490)。通过多元 Logistic 回归分析 2020 年 COVID-19 大流行期间限制性措施对社会心理和经济状况的自我感知影响的性别差异，并根据社会人口统计数据和自评健康状况进行调整。结果：流动人口的几率更高报告经济形势疲软（优势比 (OR) 5.41；95% 置信区间 (CI) 3.96–7.39）、孤独感增加（OR 1.75；95% CI 1.35–2.28）、对未来的希望感下降（OR 1.70） ; 95% CI 1.33–2.19），睡眠困难和噩梦增多（OR 1.98；95% CI 1.34–2.92）。虽然与一般人群中的男性相比，COVID-19 对女性的心理社会和经济影响更大，但研究结果在移民原籍人群中并未得到完全重复。结论：移民出身的个人在心理社会和社会心理方面都面临着更大的可能性经历不利变化。以及大流行期间的经济方面，表明与移民来源相关的脆弱性增加。需要进行更多研究来深入探讨性别、移民出身和 COVID-19 影响之间的复杂联系，旨在加强对影响因素的全面了解。在规划措施以减少未来危机中的不利社会影响时，应确定并解决不同人群的脆弱性。
