Abstract
This exploratory study aimed to understand students’ experience with loneliness and COVID-19 during the reopening of campuses in Fall 2020. College students (n = 237) at a northwestern university completed online surveys that included the Three Item Loneliness Scale and items related to COVID-19 (diagnosis, quarantine, concern, feelings of safety, and commitment to following public health interventions) in November 2020. In total, 64% of the sample reported being lonely. Students who were lonely were also more likely to report higher concern about COVID-19 and more commitment to following the public health interventions than students who were not lonely.
