“…In addition, in contrast to our study findings, a Chinese study conducted on university students during the COVID-19 outbreak reports no gender-related differences among male and female students regarding stress [40]. In general, medical studies are stressful [41], but a conclusive reason responsible for the different stress levels seen among female and male students could not be determined and requires further investigations.…”

This study aimed to assess the perceived stress levels in students, assistants, and faculty members of the College of Dentistry, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal, University (IAU), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) during the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Using the Cohen’s perceived stress scale (PSS) questionnaire (consisting of 14 items, hence called PSS-14), an online observational survey was conducted. The PSS 14 was rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 4 (very often). The scores ranging from 0–18 represented low stress, 19–37 represented moderate stress, and 38–56 represented high stress. The second-and third-year students were designated as junior year students, while fourth-year onwards were considered senior year students. Out of total 265 participants, 65% (173) were female, and the majority of the participants were dental students 70% (185) with a mean age of 26.71 ± 9.26 years. In the present study, the average PSS score for the participants was computed as 29.89 (range score: 0–56) which shows moderate stress levels among the respondents. The PSS score for the students was 31.03; for the faculty, it was 28, while for the assistants, it was 27.05. Among the three participant groups, the students were found more on the severe stress side (19%) (p-value = 0.002), and among them, the senior year students (6th year) showed significantly higher stress levels compared to the junior year students (p-value = 0.005). Age-wise, the participants below 20 years were most stressed (21%), followed by those 20–30 years old (18%). Female participants were more severely stressed than males (17% vs. 10%, respectively). It was concluded that the students experienced more stress, followed by the faculty members and dental assistants. In addition, younger participants, females, and senior year students were more stressed than their counterparts. Future studies directed at evaluating stress levels of these groups from different dental institutes could provide an opportunity for policymakers to offer various resources to improve their mental health.

“…Theoretically, many factors that affect a person's stress level. Essentially, stress is the interaction of the individual with their environment which causes pressure and can affect physical, behavioural, cognitive and emotional aspects (Dwivedi et al, 2020). The pressure that everyone experiences can come from internal factors, such as their beliefs and abilities (Shah &Barkas, 2018).…”

Emotional intelligence can be defined as a behavioral perception about understanding and regulating one's emotions. Trait emotional intelligence is the psychological construct measured by self-reported questionnaires, is considered part of a typical behavior, has been well studied in relation to stress, coping, positive thinking and adaptive responses and is amenable to training and enhancement. Covid-19 and its consequent lockdown present a unique opportunity to study stress. College students are particularly vulnerable group, not only because of the fear of the disease and its social impact, but also because of the strain associated with online classes, uncertainties regarding examinations and future career prospect and an overall bleak economic scenario. This study was conducted among college students pursuing professional courses in Dehradun, India, with a valid self-reported measure of EI, a global scale of perceived stress, and a self-made questionnaire about Covid-19 related stress, with the aim of assessing their emotional intelligence and to determine its correlation with stress. One hundred and eleven students were surveyed through an online questionnaire. Emotional intelligence had significant correlation with Covid-19 related stress, but not with perceived stress. Assessment of trait EI can identify students at risk of developing high stress.
