摘要
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)全球大流行给美国大学生带来了严峻而持久的挑战。在本研究中,我们评估了第一波冠状病毒大流行期间的心理健康症状(抑郁、焦虑、生活压力)、学术挑战和经济压力。方法:选取美国西南部一所社区学院(N = 134)和一所中等规模公立大学(N = 227)为西班牙裔服务机构,共361名大学生(Mage = 22.26, SD = 5.56)。结果:Pearson和点双列相关性表明心理健康症状、学业挑战和经济压力(包括预期的毕业延迟)之间存在关联。多因素分析显示,社区大学生焦虑得分显著高于社区大学生F(1,312) = 5.27, p =。2, η p =。与四年制大学生相比,以及在学术挑战方面的主要差异。卡方分析显示,与其他族裔/种族相比,拉丁裔家庭经历了更大的经济困难,包括失业或工作时间减少(χ2 (1, N = 361) = 28.56, p = .00)。结论/贡献:研究结果显示,在第一波冠状病毒大流行期间,社区大学生面临着不同程度的负面心理健康症状、学业挑战和经济压力。此外,拉丁裔学生的家庭经历了严重的经济困难,这可能影响了学生的学业进步和未来规划。
Examining Mental Health, Academic, and Economic Stressors During the COVID-19 Pandemic Among Community College and 4-Year University Students.
Objective: The COVID-19 global pandemic has created severe, long-lasting challenges to college students in the United States (US). In the present study, we assessed mental health symptomatology (depression, anxiety, life stress), academic challenges, and economic stress during the first wave of the Coronavirus pandemic. Method: A total sample of 361 college students (Mage = 22.26, SD = 5.56) was gathered from a community college (N = 134) and mid-size public university (N = 227) in Southwest US, both designated as Hispanic Serving Institutions. Results: Pearson and point biserial correlations indicated associations between mental health symptomatology, academic challenges, and economic stress, including expected delays in graduation. Multivariate analysis revealed that community college students had statistically significantly higher scores on anxiety F(1, 312) = 5.27, p = .02, = .01 than 4-year university students, as well as key differences with respect to academic challenges. Chi Square analyses revealed that Latinx families experienced greater economic hardships, including job loss or reduced work hours (χ2 (1, N = 361) = 28.56, p = .00) than other ethnic/racial groups. Conclusions/Contributions: Findings revealed that community college students faced disparately negative mental health symptomatology, academic challenges, and economic stress during the first wave of the Coronavirus pandemic. Further, Latinx students' families experienced significant economic hardship that may have impacted students' academic progress and future planning.
期刊介绍:
The Community College Review (CCR) has led the nation for over 35 years in the publication of scholarly, peer-reviewed research and commentary on community colleges. CCR welcomes manuscripts dealing with all aspects of community college administration, education, and policy, both within the American higher education system as well as within the higher education systems of other countries that have similar tertiary institutions. All submitted manuscripts undergo a blind review. When manuscripts are not accepted for publication, we offer suggestions for how they might be revised. The ultimate intent is to further discourse about community colleges, their students, and the educators and administrators who work within these institutions.
