Abstract

The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic has a severe impact on people's lifestyles and health all around the world, including Bangladesh. The current study sought to determine if psychoeducation can improve the mental health and life adjustment of young adults in Bangladesh during the COVID- 19 crisis. 30 undergraduate students with high GFQ scores, from two public universities in Dhaka city, were purposefully sampled for the study using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group. The participants were divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group, each with 15 respondents. The findings of the present study showed the benefits of psychoeducation on the young adults’ mental health and life adjustment. The experimental group's mental health and life adjustment both significantly improved as a result of the psychoeducation intervention, which accounted for 88.8% of the variance in the former and 80.2% in the latter. However, participants who did not receive intervention showed no significant differences in either their mental health or life adjustment. The results may help mental health experts create programs to help young adults who are having problems with their mental health and adjustment.

心理教育在 Covid-19 大流行期间增强青少年心理健康和生活适应能力方面的作用研究

正在流行的 Covid-19 大流行严重影响了包括孟加拉国在内的世界各地人们的生活方式和健康。本研究旨在确定心理教育能否改善孟加拉国年轻人在 COVID- 19 危机期间的心理健康和生活适应能力。本研究有目的地从达卡市的两所公立大学抽取了 30 名 GFQ 分数较高的本科生，采用准实验性的前测-后测设计，并设对照组。参与者分为两组：实验组和对照组，每组 15 人。研究结果表明，心理教育对年轻人的心理健康和生活适应有好处。实验组的心理健康和生活适应能力都因心理教育干预而得到了明显改善，前者占变异的 88.8%，后者占变异的 80.2%。然而，未接受干预的参与者在心理健康和生活适应方面均无明显差异。这些结果可能有助于心理健康专家制定计划，帮助那些在心理健康和适应方面存在问题的年轻人。贾根纳特大学科学杂志》，第10卷，第I期，2023年6月，第11-18页
