Abstract (english)
The aim of the study was to examine the sources of stress that students experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic with respect to gender and change of residence, as well as the relation between specific sources of stress, depressive symptoms and self-rated academic functioning. The study included 923 students aged 19 to 28 (73 % females). The students completed the Stress Source Questionnaire, the Academic Functioning Questionnaire, and the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21). Four groups of stress sources have been identified. The consequences of isolation represent the strongest stress source, followed by academic stress, the possibility of infection, and family sources of stress. Females experience all sources of stress more intensely than males, and students who changed their residence experience family problems and the consequences of isolation more stressfully than students who live continuously in their families. All sources of stress, except possible infection, are significant predictors of depression, while depression is a significant additional predictor of students' self-rated academic functioning after controlling for gender, change of residence, and sources of stress. The consequences of isolation, as a source of stress, have the strongest effect on depression and self-rated academic functioning.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj rada bio je ispitati izvore stresa koje su studenti doživljavali tijekom pandemije COVID-19, s obzirom na spol studenata i promjenu mjesta boravka zbog studija, te povezanost pojedinih izvora stresa s depresivnim simptomima i samoprocijenjenim akademskim funkcioniranjem studenata. Ispitivanjem su obuhvaćena 923 studenta (19 do 28 godina, 73 % djevojaka). Primijenjen je Upitnik izvora stresa i Upitnik akademskog funkcioniranja, koji su konstruirani za potrebe ovog istraživanja, te Ljestvica depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa (DASS-21). Utvrđene su četiri skupine izvora stresa, od kojih su posljedice izolacije najsnažniji izvor, zatim akademski izvori stresa, mogućnost zaraze te obiteljski izvori stresa. Djevojke doživljavaju sve izvore stresa intenzivnije nego mladići, a studenti koji su se zbog studija preselili intenzivnije doživljavaju obiteljske probleme i posljedice izolacije kao izvor stresa od studenata koji stalno žive u svojoj obitelji. Svi izvori stresa, osim moguće zaraze, značajni su prediktori depresivnosti, dok je depresivnost značajan dodatni prediktor samoprocijenjenoga akademskog funkcioniranja studenata nakon kontrole spola, preseljenja i izvora stresa. Posljedice izolacije kao izvor stresa imaju najjači efekt i na depresivnost i na samoprocijenjeno akademsko funkcioniranje.
