The COVID-19 pandemic has caused many changes in the education sector worldwide, and school curricula have had to adapt to a non-face-to-face modality. However, international studies have concluded that this modality has affected the academic performance of students. The present study aimed to compare the academic performance of a sample of college students from before the start of quarantine with their current performance, and to test whether various demographic factors influenced these changes in conjunction with alcohol consumption. With a non-experimental, comparative and longitudinal design, we applied an ad hoc questionnaire, in conjunction with the AUDIT questionnaire, in a sample of college students ( = 341), and we also obtained data of academic average and failed subjects. The demographic factors that influenced academic performance were sex ( < 0.01), age ( < 0.01) and alcohol consumption ( = 0.001). Most students showed an improvement in their academic average during the quarantine period. Women without failed subjects and low-risk alcohol consumption obtained a better average in this period. In conclusion sex, age and alcohol consumption level were factors associated with academic performance during the quarantine period due to the COVID-19 pandemic; and women had a higher academic average than men did.
新冠疫情大流行导致全球教育领域发生了许多变化，学校课程不得不适应非面对面的模式。然而，国际研究得出结论，这种模式影响了学生的学习成绩。本研究旨在比较一组大学生在隔离开始前和当前的学习成绩，并测试各种人口统计学因素是否与酒精消费一起影响这些变化。采用非实验性、比较性和纵向设计，我们对一组大学生（n=341）应用了一份专门的问卷，并结合 AUDIT 问卷，同时获得了学术平均成绩和挂科科目数据。影响学习成绩的人口统计学因素是性别（<0.01）、年龄（<0.01）和酒精消费（=0.001）。大多数学生在隔离期间的学业平均成绩有所提高。没有挂科且酒精摄入量低的女性在这期间的平均成绩更好。总之，由于 COVID-19 大流行，性别、年龄和酒精消费水平是与隔离期间学习成绩相关的因素；女性的平均成绩高于男性。
