Este estudio tiene la finalidad de analizar la sintomatología ansiosa de 239 estudiantes en universidades de República Dominicana durante el cierre de las instituciones educativas por la pandemia de COVID-19 en el mes de octubre de 2020. Se utilizó un cuestionario sociodemográfico y la adaptación española del Inventario de Ansiedad de Beck. Esta investigación es de tipo cuantitativo, transversal y con un alcance descriptivo-correlacional. Se reclutó a los participantes a través de un muestreo por bola de nieve. Se analizaron los datos con el fin de estudiar diferencias por sexo, carrera y edad. Se encontraron niveles de ansiedad de moderados a altos en la muestra estudiada. Los hallazgos fueron significativos para los síntomas de ansiedad, diferenciados por sexo, y no se encontraron correlaciones estadísticamente significativas entre sintomatología ansiosa y edad. Con base en estos descubrimientos, se enuncian algunas medidas que pueden ser implementadas por las autoridades institucionales orientadas a estudiantes universitarios.
This study aims to analyze the anxious symptomatology of 239 Dominican undergraduate students during confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic in October 2020. Participants completed an online questionnaire with sociodemographic questions and the Spanish version of Beck’s anxiety inventory. This research is quantitative, cross-sectional and with a descriptive-correlational scope. Participants were recruited through a snowball sample. We studied differences by sex, race, and age. Moderate to high levels of anxiety were found in the studied sample. Women showed higher levels of anxiety than men did, and no statistically significant correlations were found between anxious symptomatology and age. Recommendations for buffering the effects of anxiety in undergraduate students are provided based on these findings.
