The connection between resilience and stress : A survey of first- and second year students during distance learning (English)
Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to examine if a student's experience as a student or lack thereof, have an effect on their resilience level. Furthermore if students resilience level affect their stress level while undergoing distance learning. A questionnaire was used consisting of seven control variables and two scales, Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). The questionnaire was completed by randomly selecting students from a university in Sweden. The sample consisted of 92 individuals that were divided into two university grades (53 first years 39 second years). The results of the study showed that a medium to strong negative relationship existed between the students resilience level and stress level (r = -.34, N = 92). It also showed that there was no significant difference between first-year students' resilience level (M = 3.39, SD =.80) compared to second-year students (M = 3.39, SD = .58). Nor in the stress level for students in their first year (M = 22.11, SD = 10.60) compared to students in their second year (M = 24.95, SD = 11.65). The conclusion of the study emphasizes that despite thel ack of a significant difference between the participants in the study, the need to keep the students stress level and resilience level in mind is important for students' health, when organising distance studies.

Abstract [sv]

Denna uppsats syfte var att undersöka om studenters tidigare uppbyggda erfarenhet eller brist på erfarenhet som studenter, påverkar deras resiliensnivå. Samt om resiliensnivå påverkar upplevd stressnivå under distansundervisning. En enkät användes som bestod av sju kontrollvariabler och två skalor, Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) och Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Enkäten utfördes av studenter som slumpmässigt valdes från en högskola i Sverige. Urvalet bestod av 92 individer som indelades i två årskurser (53 förstaårsstudenter 39 andraårsstudenter). Resultaten av studien visade att det fanns ett medel till starkt negativt samband mellan studenternas resiliensnivå och stressnivå (r =-.34, N = 92). Resultatet visade att det inte fanns någon signifikant skillnad mellan förstaårsstudenters resiliensnivå (M = 3,39, SD = .80) jämfört med andraårsstudenterna (M = 3,39, SD = .58). Det fanns inte någon skillnad i stressnivån för studenter i förstaåret (M = 22,11, SD = 10,60) jämfört med studenter i andra året (M = 24,95, SD =11,65). Slutsatsen av studien betonar att trots bristen på en signifikant skillnad mellan deltagarna i studien, är behovet att hålla studenternas stressnivå och resiliensnivå i åtanke viktigt för deras hälsa i anordning av distansundervisning.
