Asian and European studies suggest that the Covid-19 pandemic is worsening university student mental health. We aimed to investigate whether this was also the case in the UK.

Data description (abstract)

UK undergraduates completed the 21 item Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21) in the autumn of 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017. Overall, we had 763 participants. We compared depression, anxiety and stress subscale scores as well as scores on each question of the DASS-21 across the four years.
