Sumario:INTRODUCTION: The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has caused a major health crisis and the quarantine of most of the planet's population. During confinement, anxiety symptoms may appear. The pandemic dramatically changes the lives of individuals by becoming a concrete manifestation of the threat. Constant exposure to information about the virus can increase anxiety, especially since the information may be erroneous or contradictory. This article examines the factors that predict student anxiety in the context of a pandemic. METHOD: The quantitative study involves a sample of 445 students from the University of Quebec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Anxiety was measured using the Beck Anxiety Inventory, and several sociodemographic variables were tested. RESULTS: The results demonstrated the effects of certain variables on anxiety, especially for women and non-binary people, were more marked than for men. Having dependent children has proven to be a protective factor. CONCLUSION: The study suggests that this variability is now considered when proposing intervention measures in a containment context. The limitations and perspectives of the study are presented and analyzed.
