La pandemia da Covid-19 e le conseguenti misure di confinamento hanno avuto un impatto globale sul benessere individuale, soprattutto su quello relativo agli studenti universitari. Il presente studio ha indagato in che misura un intervento di counseling eseguito durante la prima fase della pandemia da Covid-19 (marzo-ottobre 2020) era associato a variazioni significative nelle misure self report di Benessere Psicologico Generale, Regolazione Emotiva e Autoefficacia Percepita, in un gruppo di 49 studenti (37 f) che hanno richiesto accesso al servizio di Counseling Psicologico Universitario dell’Università di Bari "Aldo Moro". A questo scopo è stata eseguita una serie di ANOVA 2x2 a misure ripetute con il fattore pre-post e il sesso dei partecipanti come variabili indipendenti del disegno su ognuna delle misure self-report indagate. I risultati mostrano un incremento significativo del benessere, del ricorso a strategie funzio-nali di regolazione emotiva e dell’autoefficacia percepita negli studenti che hanno usufruito del servizio durante il lockdown.;
