“…Therefore, these resilience factors might serve as buffers for unfavorable changes in socio-demographic characteristics and other stressors in adolescents. Our findings are similar to previous studies among adults during the COVID-19 pandemic, which found not only that SOC and hope were correlated with mental-health components [30,37] and predicted psychological distress [38] and life satisfaction [39], but that they also moderated the link between COVID-19 diagnosis and psychological well-being [40].…”

This study aimed to examine health-related quality of life of adolescents before and during the COVID-19 outbreak, and its relationship to resilience embodied in hope and a sense of coherence. Typically developed adolescents between the ages of 13 to 18 participated in the study; 84 were recruited before the pandemic outbreak and 64 in March to April 2020 during the worldwide outbreak. The participants completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, Sense of Coherence Scale, and Children’s Hope Scale. During the outbreak, adolescents reported higher physical health-related quality of life scores (F(1146) = 3.710, p < 0.05, η² = 0.027) and lower school health-related quality of life scores (F(1146) = 5.748, p < 0.05, η2 = 0.028), compared to adolescents during the pre-outbreak period. Furthermore, adolescents during the outbreak reported a significantly (p < 0.05) higher sense of coherence but no difference in levels of hope. Finally, the results of multiple linear regression indicated that resilience factors (hope and sense of coherence) contributed to the prediction of health-related quality of life, independent of socio-demographic variables. Hope and a sense of coherence were both found to positively impact one core aspect of health, which highlights the importance of addressing resilience factors in educational and therapeutic settings for adolescents thus that they are better able to adapt to stressful events such as pandemics.

“…The statistical analysis results using Pearson correlation showed the value of r=0.297 (p<0.01), so it can be concluded that there is a very significant correlation between internet activity and loneliness. Several authors have concluded that quarantine and social isolation can lead to loneliness (Banerjee & Rai, 2020;Hartt, 2020;Hwang, Rabheru, Reichman & Ikeda, 2020;Wu, 2020;McQuaid, Cox, Ogunlana & Jaworska, 2021;Laslo-Roth, George-Levi & Margalit, 2021). The use of social media to overcome loneliness has been widely used.…”

“…The threat of Coronavirus and the consequences of social restriction policies (PSBB and PPKM) in Indonesia, forcing students to quarantine themselves for a long time and not gather and meet face-to-face for lectures and social activities. As a result, these students experience loneliness due to a lack of face-to-face social activities (Banerjee & Rai, 2020;McQuaid, Cox, Ogunlana & Jaworska, 2021;Laslo-Roth, George-Levi & Margalit, 2021). In Indonesia, loneliness is a worldwide phenomenon (Varella, 2021;Dahlberg, 2021) and primarily occurs in students and young adults (Labrague et al, 2021).…”

People in the world, including students, in social isolation during the Coronavirus pandemic, must stay at home, separate themselves from others and implement health protocols. As a consequence, university students must learn from home and distance learning online. This study aims to find the link between internet use and loneliness in 620 students in several cities in Java and Sumatra. The results showed the average internet usage was 10 hours per day, and the average nightly sleep was 6.5 hours per day, the average nap or nap was 1.3 hours per day. There is a very significant relationship between loneliness and online activity.

“…This was the case with parents who had to acquire teaching skills over the home-schooling period ( Parczewska, 2021 ). Other groups were new to online resources, lost valuable resources such as information or personal support, and tried to gain those resources from the internet ( Laslo-Roth et al, 2021 ).…”

Two years have passed since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The entire world is still struggling with the virus and its mutations, and governments have been imposing various restrictions, including social distancing and quarantine. This paper leans on the Conservation of Resources (COR) theoretical model in comparing the impact of COVID-19 with that of an ongoing threat of terror attacks, allowing us to understand the similarities and differences between them. Such exploration could result in an understanding that may guide devising psycho-social interventions to minimize the negative psychological consequences of a continuous life-threatening situation. By applying the extensive available literature on the aftermath of terrorist attacks to the little-known long-run consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper comes up with several guidelines such as increasing online social support and enhancing adaptive coping with stress, that are applicable on the individual, community, and societal levels.
