- PublicationOpen AccessEvaluation of the concerns of Spanish university students in the face ofcurrent major challenges(Elsevier, 2024-02-10) Cifuentes Faura, Javier; Faura Martínez, Ursula; Lafuente Lechuga, Matilde; Métodos Cuantitativos para la Economía y la EmpresaThe concerns of students and young people have been on the rise in recent years. Recent events such as the Covid-19 pandemic or the invasion of Ukraine have contributed to this. Mental health, the high cost of living, the need to re-evaluate the way we work or the fight against climate change are among the main concerns of young people. The aim of this work is to find out the level of concern of university students about these problems that can condition their current life and to analyze whether these concerns can affect their academic performance, also distinguishing according to gender and age. To this end, a nationwide survey was carried out among this group in Spain. This work is the first of its kind to be carried out in Spain. The results obtained may be of great use to both educational institutions and government agents, with a view to offering policies that will improve the educational level and welfare of university students.
