Abstract
Соціальний стрес є складовою соціального життя і похідною від комплексних систематичних взаємин у групі. Стрес стає дедалі глобальнішою проблемою особливо серед студентів і негативно позначається саме на їхньому житті та здоров’ї. В основу цієї публікації покладено кількісне дослідження, проведене серед студентів (N = 100) усіх спеціальностей бакалаврату НаУКМА шляхом анкетування. Опитування комбінувало запитання відкритого і закритого форматів і збирало інформацію про найбільш стресові сфери життя (у формі самозвітів).
Understanding social stress is a task of considerable complexity, as it combines collectively shared external factors with internal characteristics unique to individuals. Social stress is also intrinsically connected to social living and is a byproduct of our day-to-day interactions within a social group. In the modern world social stress become seven a weightier problem. Students are systematically exposed to stressors specific to academia, and it has an impact on their health and quality of life. The present publication is based on a quantitative empirical study of stress among the under graduates of different major sat the NaUKMA (N = 100). The data were collected by means of self-administered survey combining questions of open and closed format. Our data show that 94 % of students have experienced a stressful situation at least once. Among the most stressful spheres of life the students mention studying at university, romantic relationships, family relationships and work. However, we do not find evidence that the stress experienced by students is chronic in nature. However, respondents indicated that these stressors affect their physical and mental health, mood, self-esteem and their satisfaction with life in a negative way Another important focus of our study was the NaUKMA students’ stress management strategies, namely forms of coping behavior the students in the sample reported to be in use to buffer stress in their daily lives. We find that students systematically engage in various forms of coping to fight off stress and find them effective. Our informants report asking for help and recruiting support from their friends, family members and significant others. Among other popular ways of coping were strategies emphasizing increased selfcontrol, optimism and positive thinking, and trying to invest time into other activities.
