COVID\u201019\u2010related news consumption has been shown to be an important factor in this regard. However, extant research is largely exploratory in nature and lacks a more nuanced examination of this relationship. Against this backdrop, in the present study, we draw on terror management theory to develop and test a moderated mediation model to examine how and when COVID\u201019\u2010related news consumption may relate to young adults' mental health complaints. Specifically, we hypothesize that COVID\u201019\u2010triggered mortality salience moderates the positive indirect association between COVID\u201019\u2010related news consumption and mental health complaints through COVID\u201019\u2010related knowledge, such that the indirect relationship is more pronounced when the level of COVID\u201019\u2010triggered mortality salience is relatively high compared to low.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross\u2010sectional survey was conducted with 250 student participants from two public universities in the capital of Bangladesh.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Results support our proposed hypotheses.
