The study focused on the implications of COVID-19 pandemic on students' social and personal lives, revealing adjustments in verbal and non-verbal communication during the pandemic and potential changes in communication behaviors post-pandemic. The results indicated shifts in interpersonal communication under pandemic restrictions and how individuals strive to safeguard their most valuable asset – communication.
Aiming at shedding light on the implications the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the students' social and personal lives, this study has focused on the verbal and non-verbal communication and on the surveyees' personal lives during the pandemic as well as on the perspective of changing their communication behaviors after the pandemic. The 409 respondents, students at Politehnica University of Timisoara, took part in a survey, conducted between 1 April and 30 May 2021, that was posted on isondaje.ro, a Romanian online survey platform. The research has suggested the following results: the adjustment of the verbal communication by speaking in a more articulated manner or more loudly; the overuse of the upper part of the face to compensate for the concealed parts of the face due to face mask wearing; the analysis of the factors underlying the respondents' actions, i.e., relational attitudes, various greeting forms, various non-verbal reactions, which are aspects that are likely to change even after the pandemic. The results have also presented the changes that interpersonal communication could go through under the pressure of the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, but also the ways through which people try to protect their most valuable asset, i.e., communication, which defines humanity and makes us unique as human beings.
