The quantitative study was conducted using a structured online questionnaire with 278 participants aged 65 or older. The Geriatric Anxiety Inventory (GAI) was used to assess the anxiety. An in\u2010depth interview with 20 participants was used to fill the gap of face\u2010to\u2010face interview due to pandemic situation and strengthen the results of quantitative survey.
