Greetings!
My name is Nirmala Gopal. I am a Professor in the discipline of
Criminology and Forensic Studies at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN),
Howard College campus, South Africa. ( Email: Gopal@ukzn.ac.za; Tel: 0312602006). Together with the Co-investigators, Prof Johannes
John-Langba ( Discipline of Social Work; Email: JohnLangbaJ@ukzn.ac.za) and Dr
Kemist Shumba ( Discipline of Psychology; Email: ShumbaK@ukzn.ac.za), we are interested in understanding the emotional wellbeing of first
year students at UKZN during the COVID 19 lockdown. We know that these are
anxious and uncertain times for all of us.
This research study is only for the participation
of UKZN first year students. It will
involve the completion of an online survey questionnaire that will take only 15
minutes to complete. The research study has
been ethically reviewed and approved by the UKZN Humanities and Social Sciences
