BARRAZA MACIAS, Arturo. Academic stress in master's students and its modulatory variables: a between-groups design. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2008, vol.26, n.2, pp.270-289. ISSN 1794-4724.
The present investigation tries to establish the descriptive profile of the academic stress of the students of the masters in education and to identify which sociodemographic and situational variables play a modulator role. This investigation is based on the Person-Surroundings Research Program and the systemical cognitive model of academic stress. The study can be characterized as transectional, correlational and non experimental. The collection of the information was made through the SISCO inventory of Academic Stress which was applied to 152 students. The main results suggest that 95% of the master students report having felt academic stress a few times but with medium-high intensity. Variables gender, civil state, attending masters and institutional support of the attending masters act as modulators in academic stress.
