Abstract

This study aims to explore the biopsychosocial factors linked with the well-being of students and educators during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and how these factors affect feelings, thoughts, behavior, family relationships, and work environment. We developed a questionnaire comprising three domains: biological, psychological, and social. These three domains covered some of the symptoms that occurred in people during the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample included educators and students who were randomly selected from two countries: the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Jordan. The sample consisted of 56 academic staff, 6 administrative staff, and 232 students at the tertiary level. The main findings showed that the most commonly reported biopsychosocial factors linked with educators’ and students’ well-being were the effect on family, depression, negative effect of media, headache, increased eating and sleep, physical comfort, and positive effect on goal achievement. In addition, the results showed that the demographic variables, gender and academic levels, had no statistically significant effect on the participants’ responses, but there was a significant effect of social status. In addition, the study highlighted the common coping strategies used by educators and students, such as doing physical exercise, finding a hobby, sleeping, and eating more meals.

摘要

这项研究旨在探讨在2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行期间与学生和教育者的福祉相关的生物心理社会因素，以及这些因素如何影响感觉，思想，行为，家庭关系和工作环境。我们开发了一个包含三个领域的问卷：生物学，心理和社会领域。这三个领域涵盖了在COVID-19大流行期间人们中出现的某些症状。样本包括从两个国家（阿拉伯联合酋长国（UAE）和约旦）中随机选择的教育者和学生。样本由56名学术人员，6名行政人员和232名大专生组成。主要发现表明，与教育者和学生的幸福有关的最常报告的生物心理社会因素是对家庭的影响，抑郁症，媒体负面影响，头痛，进食和睡眠增加，身体舒适度以及对达成目标的积极影响。此外，结果表明，人口统计学变量，性别和学历水平对参与者的反应没有统计学显着影响，但对社会地位有显着影响。此外，研究还强调了教育者和学生所采用的常见应对策略，例如进行体育锻炼，寻找嗜好，睡觉和多吃食物。但社会地位产生了重大影响。此外，研究还强调了教育者和学生所采用的常见应对策略，例如进行体育锻炼，寻找嗜好，睡觉和多吃食物。但社会地位产生了重大影响。此外，研究还强调了教育者和学生所采用的常见应对策略，例如进行体育锻炼，寻找嗜好，睡觉和多吃食物。
