与普通人群相比，大学生越来越被认为是较高的焦虑，抑郁，滥用抑郁，滥用药物和饮食障碍的人群。 COVID-19大流行 - 对该脆弱人群的心理健康的伯恩（Burnen）被放大。 Covid-19对学生的影响，2）开发概况，以表征学生在大流行期间的预期心理影响水平，3）评估潜在的社会人口统计学，与生活方式有关的社会人口统计学，以及对感染COVID的风险因素的人的认识学生更有可能体验这些影响。
横断面数据是通过来自美国七所大学的基于Web的问卷收集的。效果。我们收到了2,534个完整的反应，其中61％来自女性，79％来自非西班牙裔白人，而研究生为20％。
对封闭式响应的探索性因素分析导致了两种潜在构造，我们用来识别具有潜在概况分析的学生的概况，包括高（样本的45％），中度（40％）和低（14％）心理影响。双变量协会表明女性是非西班牙裔亚洲人，健康状况不佳，相对家庭收入低于平均水平非西班牙裔白色，高于平均水平的学生的较高水平，在外面至少花费两个小时，或者在电子屏幕上花费少于八个小时。效果逻辑回归）表明，作为一个女性，拥有公平/差的一般健康状况，年满18至24岁，在屏幕上花了8个小时或更长时间每天，当简单地考虑风险因素时，就会知道被感染的人预测心理影响更高。
识别和应对大学生的心理健康挑战的努力不足，尤其是在大流行期间，可能会对他们的健康和教育产生长期的影响。
University students are increasingly recognized as a vulnerable population, suffering from higher levels of anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and disordered eating compared to the general population. Therefore, when the nature of their educational experience radically changes—such as sheltering in place during the COVID-19 pandemic—the burden on the mental health of this vulnerable population is amplified. The objectives of this study are to 1) identify the array of psychological impacts COVID-19 has on students, 2) develop profiles to characterize students' anticipated levels of psychological impact during the pandemic, and 3) evaluate potential sociodemographic, lifestyle-related, and awareness of people infected with COVID-19 risk factors that could make students more likely to experience these impacts. Cross-sectional data were collected through web-based questionnaires from seven U.S. universities. Representative and convenience sampling was used to invite students to complete the questionnaires in mid-March to early-May 2020, when most coronavirus-related sheltering in place orders were in effect. We received 2,534 completed responses, of which 61% were from women, 79% from non-Hispanic Whites, and 20% from graduate students. Exploratory factor analysis on close-ended responses resulted in two latent constructs, which we used to identify profiles of students with latent profile analysis, including high (45% of sample), moderate (40%), and low (14%) levels of psychological impact. Bivariate associations showed students who were women, were non-Hispanic Asian, in fair/poor health, of below-average relative family income, or who knew someone infected with COVID-19 experienced higher levels of psychological impact. Students who were non-Hispanic White, above-average social class, spent at least two hours outside, or less than eight hours on electronic screens were likely to experience lower levels of psychological impact. Multivariate modeling (mixed-effects logistic regression) showed that being a woman, having fair/poor general health status, being 18 to 24 years old, spending 8 or more hours on screens daily, and knowing someone infected predicted higher levels of psychological impact when risk factors were considered simultaneously. Inadequate efforts to recognize and address college students’ mental health challenges, especially during a pandemic, could have long-term consequences on their health and education.
