I accepted the hand-off on Aircraft X from ZZZ approach and put a PVD (Plan View Display) on what I thought was ZZZ Approach LO's scope. I was very busy working three sectors combined and simply climbed Aircraft X on check on. A few minutes later in my hurried scan I noticed that he was in ZZZ Approach lows airspace climbing through 110 but the P [position symbol] was still a P not an A [position symbol]. I looked at the P and noticed why. I had put it on sector XY's scope not sector XX's. Just a mistake of being busy and being in an expect things to go as planned and hope for the best mode instead of a calm verify everything and plan for the worst mode. There really isn't a recommendation. While we're in this skeleton crew phase there's nothing that can be done and this is just the way things are day in and day out.
Center Controller reported a mistake involving handing off an aircraft to the wrong sector and cited staffing levels as a contributing factor.
