“…Relevant educational interventions based on online and offline phases that may be used for addressing the fear of COVID-19 as well as associated negative emotions (e.g., anxiety, stress, and depression) include: building inner strength and fortitude, the art-of-living, fostering proactivity and career adaptability, dimensions of wellness, advancing well-being in the PERMA (positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment) dimensions; character strengths for promoting personal growth and environmental mastery, enhancing self-insight, cultivating a positive outlook on life, promoting the joy of living, practicing gratitude for greater happiness, and unlocking the winner within (cf.

This study determined the psychometric validation of the English version of the Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S). Findings demonstrated robust psychometric properties for the FCV-19S. CFA results showed that the FCV-19S was a good model fit to the data in a sample of 608 university students. The FCV-19S also showed good concurrent validity, as it was significantly and positively related to the Preventive Behaviors related to COVID-19 Scale and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale as well as significantly and negatively related to the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale. The scale also showed good internal consistency reliability. Further, the association of age with FCV-19S indicated that younger students experienced greater fear of COVID-19. The analyses of mean differences revealed that women as compared to men, bachelor’s and master’s students as compared to post-master’s students, and unemployed students as compared to employed students experienced greater fear of the outbreak. Also, those suffering from severe anxiety experienced greater fear of COVID-19 followed by those suffering from moderate, mild, and minimal anxiety. Moreover, knowing someone suffering from the coronavirus, being afraid that someone close might contract the virus, and believing that the current COVID-19 situation adversely affects academic performance were linked to higher levels of fear of the pandemic. Practice implications, limitations, and avenues for future research are also discussed.

This study demonstrated that the Exemplary Teaching intervention offered to Pakistan’s school teachers through the emotionalized learning experiences (ELE) format fared better than that offered through the teacher-centered methodology as regards the development of career adaptability, teaching self-efficacy, and work engagement from Time 1 to Time 2. Analyses to explore the development of career variables from Time 2 to Time 4 revealed that only the teachers who were offered the ELE intervention effectively engaged in step-by-step career construction over the academic year. Theoretical contributions of the results and implications for offering future career interventions amid COVID-19 are also discussed.
