Academia was no exception to the widespread impact of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). There is only a small amount of research conducted with regard to the consequences of the Pandemic in Fiji. Thus, in order to gather a longitudinal dataset, a cross-sectional survey was conducted from February to August 2020. 300 physical education and sports teachers used Google Forms to complete an online survey. There are questions on the form about age, gender, marital status, and other daily activities. A similar survey was conducted to study the long-term psychological effects (coronavirus fear and fascination with COVID-19). The characteristics of society have been explored. Efforts have been made to use different sets of psychological data, showing the anticipated results. Sex, age, marital status, and family type are significantly affected by stress, anxiety, sexual satisfaction, and social support. There is a substantial difference between marital status, gender, and social support when it comes to the Pandemic. According to research findings, fifty per cent of secondary school physical education and sports teachers in Fiji may have been affected by the Pandemic. Considerations should be taken to keep teachers calm during a pandemic. Because of this, it is necessary to submit some practical recommendations in order to minimize the adverse effects of this problem.
学术界也未能幸免于冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的广泛影响。关于疫情在斐济造成的后果,仅有少量研究。因此,为了收集纵向数据集,于2020年2月至8月进行了一项横断面调查。300名体育教师使用谷歌表单完成了一项在线调查。表单上有关于年龄、性别、婚姻状况和其他日常活动的问题。还进行了一项类似的调查,以研究长期心理影响(对冠状病毒的恐惧和对COVID-19的着迷)。已对社会特征进行了探索。已努力使用不同组别的心理数据,呈现出预期结果。压力、焦虑、性满意度和社会支持对性别、年龄、婚姻状况和家庭类型有显著影响。在疫情方面,婚姻状况、性别和社会支持存在实质性差异。根据研究结果,斐济50%的中学体育教师可能受到了疫情的影响。在疫情期间应考虑让教师保持冷静。因此,有必要提出一些切实可行的建议,以尽量减少这一问题的不利影响。
