| Abstract | This study examined how a sample of pre-university Singaporean adolescents (N=212) with an average age of 17 years 5 months attending a variety of junior colleges perceived and managed different sources of stress. Measures of stress included Behavior Profile, Life Events, School Stress Factors, Home-School Stress Conditions and Stress Symptoms. The results showed that several features of Type A behavior emerged, and that school examinations, job aspirations, school work, and homework were the principal stressors. Fear of the unexpected, exhaustion and lack of concentration were the most quoted stress symptoms. Science students appeared to be more stressed than arts students. Listening to music, reading, and exercise were among the main stress management strategies employed by these adolescents at home. In school, stress was managed by self-control, self-sufficiency, and sharing problems with peers. (Author/ABL) |
