Objetivo: este estudio evaluó los niveles de ansiedad de los estudiantes universitarios brasileños
durante la pandemia de COVID-19. Metodología: se utilizó la Escala de Trastorno de Ansiedad
Generalizada de 7 ítems para medir los niveles de ansiedad de 1837 encuestados en un cuestionario
de investigación en línea. Resultados: los participantes fueron en su mayoría mujeres de 18
a 27 años de edad, matriculados en programas de posgrado en universidades públicas, que
viven con personas consideradas en riesgo de COVID-19, y con 1 a 3 salarios mínimos de
ingreso familiar. Más del 75% de los participantes informó algún nivel de ansiedad y que el
23,08% reportó niveles severos, mientras que solo el 24,93% experimentó niveles normales
de ansiedad. La regresión logística ordinal identificó que ser una mujer joven de bajos ingresos
podría afectar el nivel de ansiedad. Además, los estudiantes del campo de las humanidades, los
estudiantes bien informados y aquellos en riesgo de COVID-19 tuvieron significativamente más
probabilidades de sufrir ansiedad. Conclusión: la salud mental de los estudiantes universitarios
brasileños, particularmente en ciertos grupos, se vio afectada por la pandemia de COVID-19 y
requiere atención y cuidados específicos.
