ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective The study aimed to assess the factors associated with burnout among university students studying online during the COVID-19 lockdown, with a focus on nutrition and lifestyle habits. Methods This cross-sectional web-based study was conducted with university students in Türkiye. Demographic characteristics, dietary habits, dietary supplement usage, the Multidimensional COVID-19 scale, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Scale of university students were questioned with an online survey.

Results:

A total of 747 students (health science faculties68.9% and non-health faculties31.1%) participated in the study. Non-health sciences students had higher median scores of emotional exhaustion (17 vs 15), cynicism (13 vs 10), and total Multi-Dimensional COVID-19 scale (84 vs 80) than health sciences students (respectively; p=0.001, p<0.001, p<0.001). The emotional exhaustion score was positively associated with thoughts about COVID-19 (β=0.266, p<0.001) and negatively with paying attention to diet (β=-1,142, p=0.005). Students who consumed meat, eggs, and legumes at least once a day had lower emotional exhaustion (β=-0.925, p=0.029), cynicism scores (β=-0.804, p=0.025), and higher academic efficacy (β= 0.550, p=0.034). Consumption of milk and dairy products at least once a day was negatively related to emotional exhaustion (β=-0.844, p=0.033) and cynicism (β=-0.817, p=0.015). Students who consumed at least five daily portions of fruit and vegetables had greater academic efficacy (β=0.669, No-BreakpNo-Break=0.015). Conclusion Faculty, grade, thoughts about COVID-19, precautions taken related to COVID-19, and paying attention to diet are the factors that affect students' burnout during the COVID-19 pandemic. Health education and adopting healthy eating habits are beneficial for combating burnout in critical periods such as pandemics.
RESUMO
RESUMO Objetivo O estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os fatores associados ao burnout entre estudantes universitários que estudaram online durante o bloqueio da COVID-19, com foco em hábitos nutricionais e de estilo de vida. Métodos Este estudo transversal baseado na web foi realizado com estudantes universitários em Türkiye. Características demográficas, comportamentos nutricionais, uso de suplementos nutricionais, escala Multidimensional COVID-19 e Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Scale de estudantes universitários foram questionados por meio de um questionário online. Resultados Um total de 747 estudantes (faculdades de ciências da saúde 68,9% e faculdades não relacionadas à saúde 31,1%) participaram do estudo. Estudantes de áreas não relacionadas à saúde apresentaram maiores pontuações medianas em exaustão emocional, cinismo e pontuação total na escala Multi-Dimensional COVID-19 do que estudantes de ciências da saúde. A pontuação de exaustão emocional estava positivamente associada aos pensamentos sobre a COVID-19 (β=0,266, p<0,001) e negativamente associada à atenção à dieta (β=-1.142, p=0,005). Estudantes que consumiram carne, ovos e legumes pelo menos uma vez ao dia tiveram menores pontuações de exaustão emocional (β=-0,925, p=0,029) e cinismo (β= -0,804, p=0,025), e maior eficácia acadêmica (β=0,550, p=0,034). O consumo diário de leite e produtos lácteos foi negativamente relacionado à exaustão emocional (β=-0,844, p=0,033) e cinismo (β=-0,817, p=0,015). Estudantes que consumiram pelo menos cinco porções diárias de frutas e vegetais tiveram uma maior eficácia acadêmica (β=0,669, p=0,015). Conclusão Faculdade, série, pensamentos sobre a COVID-19, precauções relacionadas à COVID-19 e atenção à dieta são os fatores que afetam o burnout dos estudantes durante a pandemia da COVID-19. A educação em saúde e a adoção de hábitos alimentares saudáveis são benéficas para combater o burnout em períodos críticos, como pandemias.
