Emotional and Psychological Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic in College Students: A Language Exchange Project as a Tool to Manage Psychological Disorders Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic
Úrsula Vacalebri Lloret (University of Turin, Italy & University of Alicante, Spain)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-7998-7987-9.ch020
Abstract
COVID-19 has altered the mental health of the global population. The fear of getting sick, combined with other factors from a healthcare crisis—fear of losing loved ones, social isolation, unemployment, uncertainty about the future, etc.—have created the perfect environment for a greater development of psychological health disorders. All sectors of society are being affected by these changes, including above all, college students. The aim of this chapter is to observe the specific disorders college students may develop and what teachers can do about them. A language exchange project will be proposed as an integrated and preventive tool. It will also constitute a resource for eventual mental health disorders management. The combination of these two realities—mental health and education—should work as the basis for further investigation on integrated projects.
