The American Psychological Association provides the Health Disparities and Stress Fact Sheet that discusses the following topics in greater depth:

Given the rise in home-based violence, the American Psychological Association has collaborated with other psychological associations across the world to create an evidence-based, action-oriented, multi-language resource that has been translated into 19 languages, World’s Psychological Associations Unite Against Home-based Violence During COVID-19.
