Produktbeschreibung
Stress levels of African American college students
attending Historically Black and
Predominantly White Institutions were compared
during this research. The GPAs of the students were
correlated with their stress levels. Racism and
social support were explored as factors contributing
to stress. Results indicated that African American
students attending the Predominantly White
institution had higher stress than African American
students attending the Historically Black
institution and White students attending the
Predominantly White institution. The results also
indicated that GPA and stress were negatively
correlated; as stress levels decreased, GPA
increased. A negative correlation was found to be
significant with social support and stress; as
stress increased, social support decreased.
