COVID-19 related social isolation measures and school closures have likely increased students' stress levels. In our study, we assess the level of psychological distress and psychosocial factors among students in Mexico at the beginning of the pandemic. We conducted a cross-sectional exploratory study with 848 participants, the majority undergraduate or postgraduate (79.7%). Participants completed the Impact of Event Scale-Revised to measure emotions, and a COVID-19 questionnaire. We conducted a logistic regression analysis to find variables associated with stress: 36% (n = 309) had elevated stress, 31.4% (n = 266) anxiety, and 18.2% (n = 154) sadness often or all the time. Those who identified as women and reported a reduction in their incomes also reported a higher stress level. Stress was positively correlated with anxiety, anger, sadness, days in isolation, and hours watching TV daily; and negatively correlated with relaxation and happiness. The variable most strongly correlated with stress was a high perception of infection risk. Our findings will inform mental health strategies for students who are at higher risk of stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic response.

墨西哥学生中 COVID-19 大流行的心理困扰及相关心理社会因素:一项探索性研究



COVID-19 相关的社会隔离措施和学校关闭可能增加了学生的压力水平。在我们的研究中,我们评估了大流行初期墨西哥学生的心理困扰和心理社会因素的水平。我们对 848 名参与者进行了一项横断面探索性研究,其中大多数是本科生或研究生 (79.7%)。参与者完成了事件影响量表(修订版)以测量情绪,以及一份 COVID-19 调查问卷。我们进行了逻辑回归分析来寻找与压力相关的变量:36% ( n = 309) 的人压力增大,31.4% ( n = 266) 的人感到焦虑,18.2% ( n = 154) 的人经常或一直感到悲伤。那些自认为是女性并报告收入减少的人也报告说压力水平更高。压力与焦虑、愤怒、悲伤、隔离天数以及每天看电视的时间呈正相关;与放松和幸福呈负相关。与压力最密切相关的变量是对感染风险的高度感知。我们的研究结果将为因应对 COVID-19 大流行而面临较高压力风险的学生提供心理健康策略。
