Purpose: This study aimed to identify the factors influencing self-esteem in undergraduate students who have experienced the COVID-19 pandemic, including their body image, depression, and anxiety. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a web-based survey on 100 undergraduate students who experienced the COVID-19 pandemic in D city and K Province. Descriptive statistics were employed to evaluate general characteristics, COVID-19 infection status, quarantine experience, COVID-19-related experiences, body image, depression, anxiety, and self-esteem levels. Relationships between variables were analyzed using Pearson's correlation. Additionally, multiple regression analysis was employed to explore factors influencing self-esteem. Results: Out of the 100 respondents, 64% were female, and 36% were male. Among them, 59% had experienced a COVID-19 infection, and 61% had undergone quarantine. The group with confirmed COVID-19 exhibited negative body image, elevated levels of depression and anxiety, and diminished levels of self-esteem. The factors influencing undergraduate students' self-esteem were anxiety and body image, accounting for an explanatory power of 54.6%. Conclusion: The outcomes of this study provide essential groundwork for devising intervention programs aimed at promoting mental health among undergraduates grappling with physical and emotional adversities post-COVID-19.
