Abstract

This study aimed at finding out the relationship between social aversion and bullying and the social and psychological adjustment of a sample of university students who were infected or recovered from corona virus. Three measures were developed by the researcher (a. social aversion measure, b. bullying behavior measure and c. the social and psychological adjustment measure). These measures were administered to a sample of (210) students (101 infected and 109 recovered). Results showed significant positive correlation between social aversion and social and psychological adjustment of both the infected and the recovered students. There was also a significant correlation between bullying and social and psychological adjustment of the recovered students, but not of the infected students. Moral aversion and psychological bullying were the most common and influential factors affecting the social and psychological adjustment of both the infected and the recovered people. Negligence was the least influential one for both groups. There were no differences between the scores of infected groups and the recovered group on the social aversion measure, but there were significant differences between their scores on the bullying measure and on the social and psychological adjustment measure and on two of its pivots: the psychological adjustment and health adjustment in favor of the recovered group.
