The purpose of this research: The corona virus pandemic has affected many psychological, physical and quality of life characteristics of people in the world. Therefore, the current research sought to evaluate the socio-economic status and level of physical activity on the level of anxiety, depression and sleep quality among students.
Research methods: The participants included 524 volunteer students, 93 men and 432 women with an average age of 23.7 ± 7.5 (other demographic information: SD ± X). Students completed five questionnaires of physical activity (full name), depression (full name), anxiety (full name), sleep quality (full name) and socio-economic status online.
Research results: The results obtained from this research have shown that during quarantine, the amount of physical activity of students in both groups of women (p = 0.0001) and men (p = 0.0001) has decreased significantly. The amount of physical activity had a significant positive relationship with the sleep quality of male students (P=0.03; r=0.30). The level of anxiety of male students had a negative relationship with their socioeconomic status (p=0.00; r=-0.033) and a significant positive relationship with the level of depression (p=0.00; r=0.64). A significant negative relationship was observed between the level of socio-economic status of student girls and their level of depression (p=0.03; r=-0.10).
Conclusion of the research: The results of the present research showed that quarantine restrictions (for example, the closing of sports halls, clubs, playgrounds, swimming pools, etc.) caused a significant decrease in the amount of physical activity of students, and as a result, created many psychological problems for them.
