Abstract:
This study examined the perceptions of major sources of academic stress among male and female undergraduates. Academic stress has major implications for student retention and dropout intention (Elias, Ping, & Abdullah, 2011; Tinto, 1975). Results that indicate the impact of academic stress can provide students, teachers and administrators information on how to deal with stress in the learning environment. Data were collected via a survey in which 131 students participated, with mean of age 18.14 and standard deviation of 0.893; and the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) was use

Abstract:
Stress can lead to poor health and loss of productivity among employees across occupations. Stress does not only affect individuals but also organizations by causing work absence and staff turnover. Academics in Malaysian public universities are no exception. Due to the rapid developments in tertiary education, academics in Malaysian public universities are believed to be experiencing increased job demands that potentially lead to increased stress. This study was carried out to examine: i) the direct effect of role stressors (i.e. role overload, role ambiguity and role conflict) on strain; ii)

Child and adolescent mental health may be compromised by factors such as strained family relationships, academic stress and reduced social contact with friends.

This water rationing was not without controversy, especially for the island’s most water-intensive industries: rice farming and semiconductor manufacturing.
