Abstract

Background: The worldwide spread of COVID-19 infection and its preventive measures has resulted in global disruption of overall functioning of the individuals. In the post-COVID period, several stressors associated with the pandemic have exacerbated adjustment problems in students and impacted their mental health.

Purpose: The study aims to assess the Academic Stress and Emotional Adjustment of male and female secondary school students in Uttar Pradesh, post-COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Methods: A sample of 500 students from various schools in Uttar Pradesh pursuing high school were included in the study. A purposive sampling technique was employed for data collection based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Scale for Assessing Academic Stress and the Adolescents Emotional Adjustment Inventory were used to assess the academic stress and emotional adjustment of secondary school students post-COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Results: The results of the study revealed that there was a significant difference in academic stress and emotional adjustment between male and female secondary school students. A significant positive relationship between academic stress and emotional adjustment was found, which indicates a high level of academic stress perpetuates emotional maladjustment. Furthermore, it was found that the level of academic stress and emotional adjustment were higher among females as compared to males.

Conclusion: It can be concluded that the extended impact of COVID-19 has led to a surfeited level of distress propounding that females are more predisposed to academic stress and tend to have poor emotional adjustment than their male counterparts.

学业压力和情绪调节:一项基于性别的后covid研究。
背景:COVID-19感染的全球传播及其预防措施已导致个人整体功能的全球性中断。在后covid时期,与大流行相关的一些压力因素加剧了学生的适应问题,影响了他们的心理健康。目的:本研究旨在评估新冠肺炎疫情后,北方邦男女中学生的学业压力和情绪调整情况。方法:以500名来自北方邦不同学校的高中学生为样本进行研究。采用有目的的抽样技术,根据纳入和排除标准收集数据。采用《学业压力评估量表》和《青少年情绪适应量表》对新冠肺炎疫情后中学生学业压力和情绪适应情况进行评估。结果:研究结果显示,男女中学生在学业压力和情绪调适方面存在显著差异。学业压力与情绪适应之间存在显著正相关,表明高水平的学业压力会使情绪适应不良持续存在。此外,研究还发现,女性的学业压力和情绪调节水平高于男性。结论:新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情的长期影响导致女生学业压力过大,女生比男生更容易产生学业压力,情绪调节能力较差。
