The present outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has affected 28,584,158 people world-wide as of 13th September 2020 (WHO, 2020b). This crisis has created an atmosphere of uncertainty and fear. Due to the unavailability of the evidence based medical treatment, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) are the best options at the present moment. Lockdown was one of such measures to control the spread of the Covid-19 disease. Due to lockdown measures, many countries across the globe followed the complete closure of shopping malls, transport networks, schools, universities, etc. This study aims to investigate the behavioural psychological changes among university students due to covid-19 crises and lockdown. Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model has been adopted to develop a theoretical foundation for the research. Qualitative research methodology including a combination of personal interviews and focus groups has been adopted in the study to develop the themes with the help of computer-assisted qualitative data analysis software, Atlas.ti 7. It has been found that students are suffering from academic anxiety, fear, Mysophobia, etc. As far as behavioural responses are concerned following behavioural changes have been found; Panic buying, e-learning, community support, support for prime-minister, etc.
截至2020年9月13日，当前的新冠疫情已在全球影响了28584158人（世界卫生组织，2020b）。这场危机营造了一种不确定和恐惧的氛围。由于缺乏循证医学治疗方法，非药物干预措施（NPIs）是当下的最佳选择。封锁是控制新冠疫情传播的此类措施之一。由于实施了封锁措施，全球许多国家的购物中心、交通网络、学校、大学等都完全关闭。本研究旨在调查新冠疫情危机和封锁对大学生行为心理的影响。本研究采用刺激-机体-反应（SOR）模型为研究奠定理论基础。研究采用了包括个人访谈和焦点小组相结合的定性研究方法，借助计算机辅助定性数据分析软件Atlas.ti 7来确定主题。研究发现，学生们正遭受学业焦虑、恐惧、洁癖等问题。就行为反应而言，发现了以下行为变化：恐慌性购买、电子学习、社区支持、对首相的支持等。
