The COVID\u2010PSS\u201010 (Perceived Stress Scale) questionnaire was distributed among the older adults receiving healthcare services from health centers in Bandar Abbas selected through a convenient sampling method. Then, answers to the questions resulted in the score (without units).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total number of 456 participants between 60 and 90 years\u00a0with an average age of 64\u2009\u00b1\u20095.12 years took part in this study. The mean\u2009\u00b1\u2009SD score of total perceived stress was 16.45\u2009\u00b1\u20098.36 (the mean score of stress was 10.30\u2009\u00b1\u20096.16 and coping was 6.15\u2009\u00b1\u20093.83). Of the total, 129 participants (28.28%) were grouped as the high\u2010stress group. Results showed that the 70\u201379 years age group had higher odds of belonging to the stressed group than the 60\u201369 years age group (odds ratio\u2009=\u20092.336). Moreover, participants with a diploma were 57% more stressed than illiterate participants. The latter perceived less stress and had lower odds of belonging to the high\u2010stress group. The employed were 61% less likely to be categorized in the stressed group than the unemployed. Among women, 43% were less likely than men to be in the high\u2010stress group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>As the present findings showed, the risk factors of perceived stress induced by COVID\u201019 are old age, low education, unemployment, and masculinity. Therefore, planning to improve stress\u2010coping skills such as entertainment, strengthening social relationships, physical activity, and the peace of mind of this population are suggested under the supervision of geriatric specialists and psychiatrists.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.993","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,14]],"date-time":"2022-12-14T07:10:55Z","timestamp":1671001855000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Perceived
