Academic Hardiness and School Belongingness as Predictors of Academic Stress among Psychology Students

Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 26, Issue 1

Abstract

The study performed a multiple regression analysis to determine whether academic hardiness and school belongingness could be seen as predictors of academic stress. Psychology students at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines Sto. Tomas, Batangas who were in the Psychology course were involved in the research (N=131) and were sampled using a combination of snowball and convenience sampling. The sampled participants were sent a Google form using social media, such as Facebook, that contained the three research instruments that measured the 3 variables. These instruments were the “Revised Academic Hardiness Scale”, “Perception of Academic Stress Scale”, and “School Belongingness Scale”. The data was collected and then put under multiple regression analysis using the “Jamovi” software. Results show that academic hardiness does not predict participants' perceived academic stress. This hypothesis holds that there is no association between students' academic hardiness and academic stress. In contrast, school belongingness revealed that there is a weak negative correlation with academic stress, and it is proposed that it predicts academic stress among students.
