Abstract:
Self-esteem is a crucial psychological factor influencing how individuals handle stress, particularly in challenging academic settings. This study aimed to assess the relationship between self-esteem and academic stress among nursing students. A quantitative, cross-sectional descriptive design was employed, with 243 nursing students from various year levels at College of Nursing in Puducherry. Data were collected using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) and the Scale for Assessing Academic Stress (SAAS). Descriptive and inferential statistics, including chi-square tests, were used for analysis. Indicates that 66.7% of students exhibited normal self-esteem, while 50.2% experienced moderate academic stress. Significant associations were found between academic stress and factors such as age, year of study and place of stay. Notably, senior students reported higher stress and lower self-esteem.
