Resumen

Objectives: This study aims to explore the relationships between resilience, fear of COVID-19, anxiety and use of preventive behaviors related to COVID-19 among nursing students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 220 first-year nursing students during 2020. Results: A significant relationship emerged between resilience (p < .05), fear of COVID-19 (p = .01), anxiety (p < .01) and use of preventive behaviors. Overall, the independent predictors were fear of COVID-19 (p = .003) and male sex (p = .016). Conclusions: It is essential to develop resilience among students further to increase their preventive behaviors against COVID-19.
