Various levels of stigma affect almost all age groups, one being students. However, research on students' stigmatization and associated factors among people with Covid-19 in Indonesia are still limited. The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between socio-demographic characteristics and stigma among students. This study used a cross-sectional-online design, with purposive and snowball sampling techniques with a sample size of 663 students. The questionnaire used was the Social Stigma toward Patients due to the Covid-19 Scale (SSPCS) questionnaire. Bivariate data analysis using Pearson and Spearman rank to see the socio-demographic correlation with stigma. Statistically, The experience of stigma discrimination, stigma not accepting, stigma fear, age, religion, and major are positively correlated ( p less than 0.01).

We only found age, religion, and major to correlate positively. Abstrak: Stigma sosial merupakan bencana dan beban bagi penderita, penyintas, keluarga, petugas kesehatan atau mereka yang terkait erat dengan wabah Covid-19.
