Covid-19 on Fb: Highlighting Psychosocial Wellness of College Students in the Philippines

Abstract

The study examines the impact of viewing COVID-19-related information on participants' physical, intellectual, emotional, environmental, occupational, social, financial, and spiritual dimensions on Facebook. Regardless of quarantine experience, most participants believed in the information they viewed, regardless of classification. The effects of viewing on spiritual, environmental, and occupational dimensions were alarming. Participants with ailments and those who experienced quarantine were similar to those who spent 1-12 hours daily on Facebook. The physical dimensions were similar for both those with and without ailments. The belief in the information and classification of belief had a significant relationship with the physical, intellectual, emotional, environmental, occupational, social, and financial dimensions but not with the spiritual dimension.
