Anxiety and Safety Behavior Usage During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Prospective Role of Contamination Fear	2020-10-20		.txt	text/plain	4276	223	47	Accordingly, the present study prospectively examines contamination fear and obsessive-compulsive washing symptoms as predictors of anxiety and safety behaviors in response to COVID-19 in a student sample (N = 108). Although baseline contamination fear and obsessive-compulsive washing symptoms did not significantly predict coronavirus-related anxiety, contamination fear did significantly predict safety behavior usage in response to both COVID-19 and influenza. The present study examines the extent to which contamination fear and obsessivecompulsive washing symptoms prospectively predict COVID-19 and influenza-related anxiety and safety behaviors in a sample of undergraduates, who were surveyed at the beginning of the semester in January 2020 and again in late February through March 2020. For the prospective analyses examining contamination fear and obsessive-compulsive washing symptoms as predictors of coronavirus and flu anxiety and safety behaviors, partial Pearson correlations controlling for the date on which the survey was taken were conducted.	./cache/cord-316402-6u1czbfe.txt	./txt/cord-316402-6u1czbfe.txt
