Cross-country dataset C19 ISWS

As a large international consortium of 26 countries and 133 higher-education institutions (HEIs), we successfully developed<br> and executed an online student survey during or directly after the initial peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19<br> International Student Well-being Study (C19 ISWS) is a cross-sectional multicountry study that collected data on highereducation<br> students during the COVID-19 outbreak in the spring of 2020. The dataset allows description of: (1) living<br> conditions, financial conditions, and academic workload before and during the COVID-19 outbreak; (2) the current level of<br> mental well-being and effects on healthy lifestyles; (3) perceived stressors; (4) resources (e.g., social support and economic<br> capital); (5) knowledge related to COVID-19; and (6) attitudes toward COVID-19 measures implemented by the government<br> and relevant HEI. The dataset additionally includes information about COVID-19 measures taken by the government and<br> HEI that were in place during the period of data collection. The collected data provide a comprehensive and comparative<br> dataset on student well-being.
