Abstract

Background: Academic stress is one of the biggest health problems that have an impact on academic performance. Students become a group that is vulnerable to the stress that comes from academic life. Academic stress that is usually experienced by students is due to academic responsibility. The online learning system that has changed during the Covid-19 pandemic requires students to get more assignments and a busy lecture schedule. Method: This study used a cross-sectional study design. The respondents were 175 students using the accidental sampling technique. The instrument used was a questionnaire consisting of demographic data and a statement regarding the level of academic stress with the modified Depression Anxiey and Stress Scale 42. Result: From the results of statistical tests, it was found that most of the respondents had a moderate stress level (34.3%), the variable age value p-value = 0.001, college load p-value = 0.045, achievement index p-value = 0.302, and residence status p-value = 0.166. Conclusion: So that there is a relationship between age and study load with academic stress on students. Students who cannot adapt to environmental changes will result in impaired ability to adapt to stressors received from the academic process.
