The causes that increase students pressure are instructions, organizing of time and finances problems. Instructions in university as a student such as need academic help, course requirements, problem with instruction or academic advisement, problems with concentration, difficulty in studying, test anxiety and unclear assignments.
One of the most threatening events that causes anxiety in students today is examinations. When students develop an extreme fear of performing poorly on an examination, they experience test anxiety.
Test anxiety is a major factor contributing to a variety of negative outcomes including psychological distress, academic underachievement, academic failure, and insecurity (Hembree, 1988). Many students have the cognitive ability to do well on exams but may not do so because of high levels of test anxiety.
Because of the societal emphasis placed on testing, this could potentially limit their educational and vocational opportunities (Zeidner, 1990).
Mechanisms that explain why students perform badly under stress include "hypervigilance" (excessive alertness to a stressful situation resulting in panic--for example, over studying for an exam) and "premature closure" (quickly choosing a solution to end a stressful situation--for example, rushing through an exam).
For the problems of organizing the time, normally students have to face the lacking of personal leisure time, time for part-time work, time for satisfying social life and the most important is time for studying.
Finances problems also make a student feel stress. For example, insufficient funds, getting money from loan which is PTPTN, inability to participate in social activities because of limited funds. All of these can make students be a stressor..

There are also many miscellaneous stresses that often come from college life. Many students keep crazy hours from staying up late to study, getting up early for classes, and trying to cram in all the work and fun that can possibly fit. Often the logistics of living more independently—from laundry to car insurance—can cause stress. New students deal with missing home and more seasoned students may wonder if they’re in the right major. Most students struggle with who they are and where they’d like to be, at least at some point in their college career.

hey girlz..
ReplyDeletei agree with the causes of stress among students.the causes can be corrected by students themselves.they should try to control their emotions and attitude by having equal concentration in all the social activities.parents should give attention to their children too.
STRESS.......
