Psychosocial Effects and Coping during COVID-19: Discussion

Prior research has indicated that public health pandemics can have multiple psychological influences, specifically on college-aged students, including fear, anxiety, worry, and depression.
The suggested findings of the study have demonstrated a higher feeling of loneliness among college students during the lockdown, due to an assortment of sudden life changes brought about by the pandemic.
The presented results are in agreement with those of previous research studies which reported that the COVID-19 pandemic has led to increased psychological distress, and the lockdown can result in emotional exhaustion, anger, insomnia, and depression.
It was encouraging to researchers to see that the lowest scores of coping strategies were items of dysfunctional coping, indicating that students have been equipped with more positive coping skills than negative ones.
One study indicated that people might cope with the COVID-19 pandemic consequences through behavioral modification, reframing the pandemic to enhance mental well-being through mindfulness, building resilience, meditation, health problem solving, and practicing new activities.
