This research paper aims to understand the level of academic stress faced by undergraduate students and the different sources that contribute to it. The study also analyzes gender and stream-wise differences in total academic stress. Data was collected from four academic streams, namely commerce, humanities, science, and management, and the Academic Stress Scale developed by Rajendran and Kaliappan (1991) was used to understand the sources of stress. The study found that the mean total academic stress score was 53.46 (SD=25.70) and that there were significant differences in academic stress across different streams. The study also found that there were no significant differences in total academic stress experienced by males and females. However, there were significant differences in the dimensions of academic stress experienced by males and females and across different streams.
Keywords:
academic stress, undergraduate students, sources of stress, personal inadequacy, fear of failure, teacher pupil relationship, interpersonal difficulties, inadequate study facilities, gender differences, stream-wise differences, interventions.
