| description | Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic that started in March 2020 had a considerable impact on the functioning of higher education and the psychological wellbeing condition of students.
Research Aim: The aim of the presented research is to describe the dynamics of changes in selected personal resources: experienced stress, mental well-being, mental resilience and satisfaction with studies of students of pedagogy, in the period before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Method: Research studies were conducted among 337 students of education in three time periods: in the first quarter of 2019–122 students, then in the first phase of the pandemic in June 2020 – 91 students and in June 2021 – 124 people. The following research tools were used: the PPS-10 scale to measure stress, the WEMBS scale to assess mental well-being, the RS-14 scale to determine the psychological resilience, and the Academic Satisfaction questionnaire.
Results: More than half of the surveyed students experienced a high level of stress. In 2019–2021, mental well-being remained stable, mental resilience decreased, and satisfaction with studies increased. As stress increases, there is a decline in mental resilience and mental well-being. Stress and mental resilience are significant predictors of the mental well-being of students.
Conclusion: Almost 60 percent of the surveyed students of pedagogy had personal resources that allowed them to adequately adapt to a pandemic situation. The ability to deal with stress in a pandemic crisis plays a key role. |
