Paulo Ferrinho,

COVID-19 and Mental Health

The paper aims to present the NOVA-IHMT modest contribution to the most comprehensive and large-scale study to date of students’ perceived impacts of COVID-19 crisis on different aspects of their lives on a global level. Our master and PhD students were mostly satisfied with the support of teaching staff and the university. Students were mainly concerned about their future professional career and educational issues, and were feeling boredom, anxiety and frustration. The pandemic encouraged some hygienic behaviors (i.e. wearing masks, washing hands) and discouraged certain daily habits (i.e. leaving home, shaking hands).
