Abstract

Worldwide a health situation named as SARSCoV2 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been experienced wich has set a precedent for humanity. Based on the reviewed bibliography, the health sciences must transcend physical care and pay attention to the different psychopathological dimensions. Studies on pre- and post-pandemic anxiety show marked differences, where before the coronavirus health crisis, levels of moderate and disabling anxiety were the lowest of all in studies focused on university students. The aim of this study seeks to relate the levels of state anxiety and trait anxiety with selected sociodemographic variables (age, sex, academic cycle). The instrument used was the State-Trait Anxiety Questionnaire (STAI) and a series of structured questions that were used to obtain the sociodemographic variables in a group of 89 university students.
