Examining the Effect of Stress Management Training on University Students' Stress and Coping Mechanisms

Аннотация

The impact of stress on university students is a growing concern worldwide, with academic pressures, social expectations, and personal challenges contributing significantly to elevated stress levels. Stress, if not properly managed, can lead to negative outcomes such as poor academic performance, mental health issues, and overall life dissatisfaction. This study evaluates the effectiveness of structured stress management training modules designed to reduce stress levels among university students. Through a mixed-methods approach, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative analysis, the study demonstrates that these training modules can significantly reduce students’ perceived stress, enhance their coping mechanisms, and improve their overall well-being. The findings suggest that incorporating such programs within university curricula could be a proactive strategy to combat the pervasive issue of student stress.
