          Abstract

          RESUMEN: Introducción: Los estudiantes de enfermería viven el contexto universitario como una experiencia ambigua, concomitante con la identificación de la universidad como generadora de sufrimiento, además la caracterizan como capaz de propiciar desarrollo intelectual, sociocultural, afectivo y político. Sin embargo, la pandemia del COVID-19 trajo otras miradas del público estudiantil al contexto de la educación superior, al calificarlo como un ambiente de sobrecarga física y emocional, con la consecuente influencia en la Calidad de Vida de estos estudiantes, dado que la pandemia tiene el potencial de afectar a esta audiencia em el ámbito físico, académico, financieroa y psicológico. Objetivo: Describir la Calidad de Vida de los estudiantes de graduación en Enfermería, con base en los dominios del WHOQOL-bref, durante la pandemia de COVID-19. Material y Método: Estudio descriptivo transversal con 59 estudiantes de enfermería, realizado de julio a agosto de 2020 en una Institución de Educación Superior Pública. Se aplicó un cuestionario sociodemográfico y el WHOQOL-bref. Los datos fueron procesados utilizando el Paquete Estadístico para las Ciencias Sociales 20.0 para el análisis descriptivo y se realizó el promedio ponderado de las facetas del WHOQOL-Bref, como de los dominios. El estudio fue desarrollado en cumplimiento de la Resolución N° 466/2012. Resultados: Los dominios que más necesitaban mejorar eran el físico (relacionado con el sueño y el descanso, la energía y la fatiga y la actividad física diaria) y el ambiental (relacionado con la recreación/ocio). Conclusión: Las preguntas sobre Calidad de Vida General y satisfacción con la salud demostraron la necesidad de mejora en ambas preguntas, lo que puede haber sido influenciado por la pandemia de COVID-19.

          ABSTRACT: Introduction: Nursing students experience university life as an ambiguous experience, sometimes perceiving the university as a generator of suffering and sometimes characterizing it as a space for intellectual, sociocultural, affective, and political development. The COVID-19 pandemic brought other perspectives from the students to the university context, describing it as an environment of physical and emotional overload, with consequent influence on the Quality of Life, given that the pandemic potentially affected this population physically, academically, financially, and psychologically. Objective: To describe the quality of life of nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic using the WHOQOL-bref domains. Material and Method: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted with 59 nursing students, from July to August 2020, at a public university. The questionnaire covered sociodemographic characteristics and the WHOQOL-bref questions. The data were processed in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 20.0 for descriptive analysis, and the weighted average of the WHOQOL-Bref domains was obtained. The study was developed following Resolution nº 466/2012. Results: The domains that most needed improvement were the physical (sleep and rest, energy and fatigue, and daily physical activity) and environmental domains (recreation/leisure). Conclusion: Questions on general quality of life and satisfaction with health demonstrated the need for improvement, possibly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic.

          The impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on mental health of undergraduate students in New Jersey, cross-sectional study

          Objective The COVID-19 pandemic has been a period of upheaval for college students. The objective of this study was to assess the factors associated with the increased levels of mental health burden among a sample of undergraduate college students in Northern New Jersey, the region of the U.S. severely impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19. Methods College students (N = 162) enrolled in an introductory core curriculum course completed a cross-sectional survey. The survey collected information on demographics, knowledge levels and sources of COVID-19 information, behavior changes, academic and everyday difficulties, and mental health measurements (depression, anxiety, somatization, and stress). Multivariable regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with mental health outcomes. Results Descriptive findings indicate that students have a fundamental knowledge of COVID-19 transmission and common symptoms. Students tend to use and trust the official sources and have changed their behaviors in accordance with public health recommendations (i.e., increased hand washing, wearing mask). However, students reported a number of academic and everyday difficulties and high levels of mental health distress. High levels of depression were associated with difficulties in focusing on academic work and with employment losses, while higher levels of anxiety were more likely to be reported by students other than freshmen and those who spend more than one hour per day looking for information on COVID-19. Inability to focus on academic work and an elevated concern with COVID-19 were more likely to be associated with higher levels of somatization, while trusting news sources was associated with lower levels of somatization. Those with higher levels of perceived stress were more likely to be females, unable to focus on academic work, and report difficulties in obtaining medications and cleaning supplies. Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic is making a significant negative impact on mental health of college students. Proactive efforts to support the mental health and well-being of students are needed.

            Ansiedade, depressão e estresse em estudantes universitários: o impacto da COVID-19

            Resumo A pandemia e a inerente alteração de comportamentos, a par da parca previsibilidade, geraram maior ansiedade na população. Nesse sentido, este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar se os níveis de depressão, ansiedade e estresse em estudantes universitários se alteraram no período pandêmico (2020) comparativamente a períodos anteriores/normais. O estudo foi constituído por dois grupos, sendo a amostra 1 constituída por 460 sujeitos com idade média de 20,14 anos, e a amostra 2 por 159 sujeitos com idade média de 20,40 anos. Todos preencheram um questionário sociodemográfico e as escalas de ansiedade, depressão e estresse. Os estudantes que integraram o estudo no período pandêmico apresentaram níveis significativamente mais elevados de depressão, ansiedade e estresse comparativamente aos que integraram o estudo no período normal. Os resultados sugerem um impacto psicológico negativo da pandemia nos estudantes. Importa continuar a explorar as implicações da pandemia na saúde mental dos estudantes, para que se possam prevenir e minorar os seus efeitos.

              Analysis of the Relationship between Stress Intensity and Coping Strategy and the Quality of Life of Nursing Students in Poland, Spain and Slovakia

              Background: This study aimed to determine the relationship between stress intensity and coping strategies and the quality of life and health among nursing students in Poland, Spain and Slovakia. Methods: The study was performed on a group of 1002 nursing students from three European countries. A diagnostic survey was used as a research method and the data collection was based on the Perceived Stress Scale PSS-10, Mini-COPE Coping Inventory-and the WHOQoL-Bref questionnaire. Results: The average age of all the respondents was 21.6 years (±3.4). Most of the surveyed students rated their stress intensity over the last month as moderate or high. Comparison of the results of the stress levels in relation to the country of residence did not reveal statistically significant differences. In the group of Polish students, the most positive relationship between active coping strategies and the quality of life in the psychological (r = 0.43; p < 0.001) and physical health domain (r = 0.42; p < 0.001) were most strongly marked. Among Slovak students, significant correlations of low intensity were found between active coping strategies and the quality of life in the physical health (r = 0.15; p < 0.01), psychological (r = 0.21; p < 0.001), social relationships (r = 0.12; p < 0.05) and environment (r = 0.19; p < 0.001) domain. In overcoming stressful situations, Spanish students used the Sense of Humour strategy, which is considered less effective, although very useful in some cases. In this group, the strongest positive correlation was found for the psychological domain (r = 0.40; p < 0.001). Conclusions: There is a need to implement prevention and stress coping programmes at every stage of studies to ensure effective protection against the negative effects of stress and to improve the quality of life of nursing students.
