Resumo

ARAUJO-LEAL, Letícia et al. Psychological effects of social distancing on medical students. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2023, vol.22, n.69, pp.215-244.  Epub 20-Mar-2023. ISSN 1695-6141.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.533011.

Objective:

To estimate the prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms in students.

Method:

A cross-sectional, descriptive and observational study with a quantitative approach, carried out in a University Center by applying an online electronic form to 170 university students, using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, an instrument that assesses depressive disorder, and the General Anxiety Disorder-7 scale, which assesses and monitors anxiety.

Results:

It was verified that 42.9% of the students had moderate anxiety and 37.0% of the participants had moderate depressive disorder. Medical students aged between 25 and 29 years old with no previous psychological disorder were the most susceptible to presenting greater signs of depression and anxiety during the pandemic, and the students reported that they would have liked to have received psychological support from the university during this period.

Conclusions:

Educational institutions need to provide multilateral support, including early mental health interventions, especially during pandemic times.
