Abstract:
The current reality demands the appropriate management of a set of capabilities, skills, and personal and collective tools that allow solving the problems and needs of a transformed society. Caring for and teaching how to care for the physical and emotional health of students from a sociocultural approach is an important aspect that contributes to good academic performance, therefore, identifying some particularities related to the subject will favor the design and implementation of university public policies related to the promotion of integral health and care for life. Therefore, the objective of this research was to identify and analyze from an emotional dimension, the state of health, the presence of sleep disturbances, as well as the variations in eating habits that developed in the student community of the FES-Iztacala of the UNAM during the implementation of social distancing.
