Single-valued neutrosophic N-soft set and intertemporal single-valued neutrosophic N-soft set to assess and pre-assess the mental health of students amidst COVID-19

Book excerpt: Stress binds everyone as we face uncertainty in our lives. So, it is notable that we experience anxiety during this coronavirus disease (COV ID − 19) pandemic context. When we try to handle stress for longer duration leads to chronic, and it can affect both physical and mental health. The scientific techniques to precisely pre-assess or assess mental health disorders are hardly available for the students. This paper intends to provide an explication to pre-assess or assess the mental health of the students amidst this pandemic. We present the notions of single-valued neutrosophic N-soft set (SV NNSS) and the quasi-hyperbolic discounting intertemporal single-valued neutrosophic N-soft set (QHDISV NNSS) to show the mental condition of the students.
