Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) was used to measure the emotion regulation strategies and the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) was used to evaluate the coping methods among nursing and non-nursing students.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In total, 746 students including 366 nursing students and 380 non-nursing students participated in the survey. Compared with the non-nursing students, a significant decrease was noticed in GAD-7 score (p&lt;0.01) and PHQ-9 (p&lt;0.01) in the nursing students. The cognition re-evaluation score in the nursing students was significantly lower than that of the non-nursing students (p&lt;0.05). In the nursing students, the score of anxiety was positively correlated with ERQ expression inhibition (p&lt;0.01) and SCSQ negative coping (p&lt;0.01), while the score of depression was also positively correlated with ERQ expression inhibition (p&lt;0.01) and SCSQ negative coping (p&lt;0.01). There was a negative correlation between SCSQ and the scores of anxiety (p&lt;0.05) and depression (p&lt;0.05). In the non-nursing students, the anxiety score was positively correlated with the SCSQ negative coping (p&lt;0.01), while the depression score was positively correlated with the ERQ expression inhibition (p&lt;0.01) and SCSQ negative coping (p&lt;0.01).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>COVID-19 affected the emotional status of nursing and non-nursing students.
