| Core Tip |
Mental health issues are increasingly prevalent among college students. Negative emotions, such as depression, anxiety, and stress, can significantly impact this population, especially in closed environments. A clear example was seen during coronavirus disease 2019 Lockdowns, when prolonged isolation at home or on campus led to information blockage, disrupted education, and social isolation. To investigate the impact of lockdowns on college students’ mental health, we conducted an online survey at a Chinese university using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21. We found a high prevalence of negative emotions among confined students. Recreational activities helped mitigate distress, while compensatory spending and binge eating worsened mental health. In all, Proactive measures should be implemented to guide healthy emotion regulation habits among college students, particularly in high-stress environments. |
