Abstract
We examined how classroom settings impacted undergraduates’ psychological distress and perceived social support during the pandemic. Results revealed an especially deleterious effect of fully virtual education on first-year students’ well-being. Classmate and peer social support improved mental health, but professor support was the most universal correlate of positive psychological outcomes.
