  A survey showed that over 90% of college students at home due to the epidemic have varying degrees of social anxiety

  Since the Ministry of Education issued a notice on January 29 this year to postpone the start of the 2020 spring semester, students staying at home, gatherings, holding and not participating in concentrated activities, the efficiency of college students’ home learning has become the focus of public attention . On the Internet, the click-through rate of various college students' home study "guides" jumped into the top ten in the hot search list every minute.

  A few days ago, the League Committee of Donghua University launched a survey on college students' study, health, and living conditions during the epidemic. 654 college students participated.

  "During the epidemic, college students' learning styles and lifestyles have been impacted to varying degrees, which may have a major impact on students' physical and mental health, learning effectiveness, and living conditions." Shen Jie, secretary of the Donghua University Committee of the Communist Youth League, told reporters .

  Judging from the existing news reports, some families have fallen into a state of quarreling between their children and their parents, cold wars, and the two sides are "weary at each other." In addition, previous studies have shown that the incidence of social anxiety tends to be younger and the incidence is increasing year by year. About 16% of college students report "severe social anxiety" that affects their basic lives. "Therefore, we feel that it is necessary to pay special attention to the situation of college students' homes." Shen Jie said.

  The report shows that at this stage, about 70% of the students' online courses are mainly based on live and recorded lessons, and "watch the recorded lesson first, and then conduct the live broadcast explanation" is just a small part of it. The students' attendance during the online class is relatively good. 77.5% of the students will attend each class as required. However, compared with offline courses, more than 80% of students cannot fully grasp the knowledge explained by the teacher, and are more or less confused. This shows that the form of online courses does have a certain impact on students' learning efficiency.

  When solving problems in online learning, 77.9% of students would search for information by themselves, 58.7% of students would use learning software reasonably, and 60.6% of students would choose to discuss with classmates. It is worth noting that only 31.2% of students chose to directly ask the teacher. This is a more obvious difference between college students and elementary and middle school students in online classes. They are more inclined to learn independently instead of interacting with teachers.

  When asked about the "daily time allocation", 19.4% of students said that they spend most of their time studying, but there are still 26.9% of students who said "most of their time is spent on entertainment." It is worth noting that 1.3% of the students "only study without entertainment", 5% of the students "only entertain but not study", and 47.5% of the students "study and entertainment have half the time."

  Although home study allows students to allocate entertainment and study time more reasonably, it also has the problem of being slack and easily affected by other factors. For example, 53.1% of students said they were susceptible to the temptation of games and other factors, their learning attitude was good, jet lag, and easy to be disturbed; 51.9% of students felt average about their time planning, and 31.9% of students were dissatisfied with their time management .

  There are pros and cons to online learning. The survey results show that after the epidemic, 21.9% of students wish to continue studying on the online platform, 35.6% of students who do not wish to continue studying on the online platform, and 42.5% of those who wish to combine online courses with offline classrooms.

  The survey also conducted special research on the physical and mental health of students during the epidemic. During the epidemic at home, 73.2% of students had high-frequency communication with their parents, and most of the students had the behavior of doing housework at home to share the pressure for their parents, and 36.6% of students still insisted on physical exercise during their stay at home. When evaluating their own health conditions, the proportions of students who chose "relatively good health" and "sub-healthy state" were 45.1% and 36.6%, respectively.

  The report pointed out that home study severely restricted the outdoor activities of students, and due to limited indoor space or other reasons, it was difficult for students to exercise properly; in addition, there was no regular work and rest, excessive use of electronic products, and unhealthy diet Habits also lead to health problems for the students. It is worth noting that when students evaluate their own health, they are most worried about "physical health".

  Although 79.3% of the students have plans to improve their physical and mental health, only 6.1% of them have persisted in implementing the plan. The students did not pay enough attention to the self-adjustment of physical and mental health, and many plans were not implemented. Although 60.9% of the students set goals during the epidemic, they could only complete part of it.

  The survey also carried out further research on the "social anxiety" of college students. In daily communication during the epidemic, 88.8% of students are more inclined to use social media such as WeChat or QQ, and only 9.9% of students choose "face-to-face interviews." In addition, 91.5% of classmates believe that they have varying degrees of dependence on online social networking, and 90.2% of classmates will experience varying degrees of anxiety because the other party does not respond for a long time in online social networking; sharing life on social platforms At the time, 54.6% of the students only published with the purpose of sharing, but 40.2% of the students were more concerned about the feedback of others.

  94.1% of classmates will have varying degrees of anxiety when attending parties or some social activities, and 88.2% of classmates will feel nervous and anxious when asked in public in class and meetings. It is worth noting that 45.4% of classmates hate crowded places and are afraid to express themselves; 42.7% of classmates often keep their cellphones and pretend to be busy; 40.1% of classmates said they would never make a phone call in person Said that those who can send messages never call; 39.5% of students “do not know how to say hello and will choose to take a detour” when they see someone they know.

  The epidemic seems to have a greater impact on college students’ social interactions than on academics. Most students will feel uncomfortable when they need to communicate in language, especially in the case of face-to-face communication, and choose to escape.

  62.5% of classmates think that social anxiety will make them often afraid of doing badly or doing something wrong, and 58.6% of classmates will be unconfident and prone to inferiority. At the same time, 38.2% of the students will pretend to be self-confident, please others, and will start to speak less; 34.2% of the students will have too much self-accusation, and 27.0% of the students will be unable to concentrate.

  The report pointed out that the above phenomena all show that social anxiety will have a serious impact on students' normal social interaction, self-awareness and normal study work. However, 61.8% of students did not seek help when facing social anxiety and felt that they could solve it. Even 24.4% of classmates do not pay attention to social anxiety and feel that there is no need to seek help from others.

  The report believes that this has something to do with the fact that college students have less understanding of psychological counseling. 46.7% of students "do not understand" what psychological counseling is, nor have they communicated with the school's counseling teachers or participated in some psychological lectures.

  The report also gives some survey data for the ways to relieve social anxiety after school starts. For example, 85.5% of students think that they should adjust their status and maintain a good mental outlook; 74.3% of the students think that they should find friends to chat after school starts, and adapt to face-to-face social interaction; 65.8% of students choose to do security protection Under the premise of the measures, go out of the house occasionally to increase social interaction; 59.2% of the students chose appropriate physical exercises to maintain their physical vitality to cope with social anxiety.
