- Abstract
The Covid-19 pandemic is an ongoing problem in the world. Preventing and reducing transmission is key to combating this situation. This study describes civic engagement during the covid-19 pandemic among college students in East Java, Indonesia. The survey was conducted through google form (G-form) from June to October 2020. Our respondents come from Mataraman culture, Arek culture, Pandalungan culture, and Madura culture. A total of 946 respondents fulfilled and returned the questionnaire. There are four groups of questions, namely civic appreciation and trust, participation in public life, attitude during the covid-19 pandemic, and behaviour during the covid-19 pandemic, consisting of thirty-six statements. The statement is measured on a Likert scale. Our study found that college students in East Java have a high appreciation for health workers (84.5% - 92.7%). The participation in preventing and handling the Covid-19 pandemic was the most agreed upon compared to other statements (45% - 54.85%). For attitude and behaviour during the covid-19 pandemic, our respondent agreed to get valid information and wear a mask, and vice versa. Overall, the finding shows no difference between the four culture typologies.
