Introducción:
Los estresores académicos tienen efectos negativos en la salud y el desarrollo académico de los estudiantes de educación superior. Objetivo:
Identificar los estresores académicos de mayor prevalencia antes y durante la pandemia de COVID-19 y su relación con factores socioacadémicos. Métodos:
Se realizó un estudio longitudinal correlacional. La muestra censal en el 2019 fueron 166 y en el 2021, 156 estudiantes de enfermería de una universidad pública andina (Huaraz, Perú). El instrumento fue el Inventario de Estrés Académico. Los análisis estadísticos incluyeron comparación de medias, correlación de Pearson y Rho de Spearman. Resultados:
Fueron estresores académicos antes vs. durante la pandemia de COVID-19: sobrecarga académica (3,94vs. 3,51), falta de tiempo (3,75vs. 3,14), trabajos obligatorios (3,12vs. 2,98). Estos correlacionaron antes de la pandemia con:
mayor número de cursos e insatisfacción con rendimiento académico y; durante la pandemia: sexo femenino e insatisfacción con situación económica. Las mujeres percibieron cuatro o siete estresores académicos y los varones dos o uno, antes o durante la pandemia de COVID-19, respectivamente. Conclusiones:
Los estresores académicos en los estudiantes antes y durante la pandemia de COVID-19 fueron: sobrecarga académica, falta de tiempo para cumplir con las actividades académicas y realización de trabajos obligatorios para aprobar las asignaturas. Las mujeres presentaron más estresores académicos que los varones antes y durante la pandemia. Los estresores académicos correlacionaron con factores académicos antes de la pandemia; y con factores sociales durante la pandemia(AU)
Introduction:
Academic stressors have negative effects on the health and academic development of higher education students. Objective:
To identify the most prevalent academic stressors before and during the COVID-19 pandemic and their relationship with socio-academic factors. Methods:
A longitudinal correlational study was carried out. The census sample in 2019 was 166; and, in 2021, 156 nursing students from an Andean public university (Huaraz, Peru). The instrument was the Academic Stress Inventory. Statistical analyzes included comparison of means, Pearson correlation and Spearman's rho. Results:
The following were academic stressors before vs. during the COVID-19 pandemic: academic overload (3.94 vs. 3.51), lack of time (3.75 vs. 3.14), mandatory assignments (3.12 vs. 2.98). These were correlated, before the pandemic, with greater number of courses and dissatisfaction with academic performance; and, during the pandemic, with female sex and dissatisfaction with the economic situation. The women perceived four or seven academic stressors and the male perceived two or one, before or during the COVID-19 pandemic, respectively. Conclusions:
The academic stressors in students before and during the COVID-19 pandemic were academic overload, lack of time to complete academic activities, and completing mandatory work to pass the subjects. The women presented more academic stressors than the male before and during the pandemic. Academic stressors were correlated with academic factors before the pandemic and with social factors during the pandemic(AU)
