Saturday, May 28, 2022 · Chicago, IL

Oral · Cognitive

We surveyed college students (N=992) in the U.S. about their experiences before (Fall 2019) and during pandemic affected semesters (Spring 2020-Spring 2021). Even after accounting for demographic differences, general test anxiety was positively and computer self-efficacy was negatively associated with pandemic-induced academic stress.
