RESULTS: The results showed that the perception of threat from COVID-19 was related positively to negative affect and emotional signs, that is, sadness-depression, anxiety and anger-hostility. The starting hypothesis was that perception of threat in the exceptional state of health emergency caused by COVID-19, affects one's emotional situation (Model 1), and this, in turn, affects perception of risk (Model 2), in which positive and negative affect balances act as mediators in these relationships (Fig 1) .	./cache/cord-291756-ejh1r8h4.txt	./txt/cord-291756-ejh1r8h4.txt
