Description
Under the direction of Dr. Bonnie Bowers
The Coronavirus pandemic has affected individuals' lifestyles, behaviors, health, and perspectives as separate entities and as a collective whole. This study aimed to understand participant’s (N = 118) experiences of how the COVID-19 pandemic affected these factors. Key findings revealed positive correlations and Cronbach alphas > .80 in mental wellbeing, health consciousness, global and self interconnectedness, and racial/social effects measures. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the Racial Social Effect measure. Individuals belonging to a minority race/ethnicity had a higher mean value compared to those of a nonminority race/ethnicity; t (106) = -5.11, p < .001. The findings prompt further research into the relationships and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on these factors.
