Zusammenfassung	The COVID-19 Mental Health Impact Scale (CMHIS) is a brief, multidimensional instrument assessing anxiety, depression, and stress symptoms triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. Developed by Wang and colleagues in 2020 during the initial pandemic wave in China, it captures the spectrum of psychological distress across multiple symptom domains. The CMHIS has been widely adopted in pandemic surveillance and mental health research across 30+ countries, providing rapid assessment of population mental health burden.	The Pandemic Fatigue Scale (PFS) measures psychological exhaustion and reduced motivation to maintain protective behaviors during prolonged pandemics. Developed by Restrepo and colleagues, it captures the phenomenon whereby individuals progressively abandon preventive measures (distancing, mask-wearing, testing) despite ongoing transmission risk, driven by 'fatigue' or loss of motivation rather than reduced threat perception. The PFS has become essential for monitoring behavioral adherence trends and explaining divergence between risk and protective behavior during multi-wave pandemics.
