Perspectives in Stress among College Students
examine the differences between gender and
educational level of students (freshman and
sophomore) in the amount of stress they experience.
It further sought to understand what distinguishes
levels of stress among college students as well as
the factors that contribute to stress among college
students. The population for this book consisted of
African-American, Caucasian, Hispanic male and
female undergraduate students attending a college in
the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area. The sample
consisted of freshman and sophomore students. All of
the participants were between 18 and 28 years. One
of the instruments was the standardized Brief
Personal Survey. Additional tools employed in the
book produced a checklist of the sources of stress
which were compiled by the author. Each stress
source was presented on a five-point Likert scale
ranging from 1-Not stressful to 5-Extremely
stressful. Respondents were asked to indicate to
what extent they have personally experienced each
stressor. This book explores the importance of
understanding the effect of stress in college
students lives.
