Stressors and Resilience Are Associated with Well-Being in Young Adult College Students
Journal of American College Health, v71 n3 p821-829 2023
Objective: The purposes were to describe stressors and resilience behaviors of college students and examine the relationships among stressors, resilience, and well-being. Hypothesis: Resilience will modify the relationship between stressors and well-being. Participants: The sample included 1,010 college students, ages 18-26, from an urban Midwestern university. Methods: A secondary analysis of cross-sectional data from an anonymous survey was conducted using multiple regression and simple slopes analysis. Results: Resilience did not modify the relationship between stressors and well-being. Stressors ([beta] = -0.44, p < 0.0001) and resilience ([beta] = 0.33, p < 0.0001) accounted for 42% of the variance in well-being (adjusted R[superscript 2] = 0.42, F[subscript 2,999] = 365.98, p < 0.0001). The most frequently endorsed stressors were sleep problems, anxiety, and relationships. Conclusions: Stressors and resilience warrant special attention in the allocation of resources and development of programs to improve student well-being.
