Sumario: | Introduction: the world is going through a critical situation due to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19); this situation causes negative emotional states in people suffering from any respiratory disease or related pathology.
Objective: to establish the relationship between emotional state and respiratory diseases in college students at the Universidad Nacional Amazónica de Madre de Dios (UNAMAD), during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Method: a descriptive correlational non-experimental research was carried out with the application of a questionnaire composed of 33 items oriented to identify the level of stability, tension or instability in 80 college students of the aforementioned institution during the month of December 2020, using Chi-square, V Cramer and Lambda tests.
Results: females (53.8%) and those who were in a degree in Education were predominant. The highest incidence was in the age group 17-19 years (48.8%). Respiratory disease was found in 26.8% (80 students). Regarding the emotional state, 40 % reported living under stress, 36.3% presented a state of emotional stability and 23.8% were in a state of emotional instability. The intensity of relationship between both variables was high.
Conclusions: the asymptotic significance between the following dimensions: emotional awareness, emotional control, emotional autonomy and socioemotional skills, is demonstrated by the existence of a relationship, the statistical dependence, between the dimensions of emotional state variables and the variable respiratory diseases. |
