The COVID-19 pandemic led to universities adopting remote learning models, resulting in an overall increase in study-related stress levels among students. Strong self-regulation skills were linked to lower stress increases, while students with higher mental health issues and limited time for coursework experienced larger stress increases. To address student stress levels, universities should focus on enhancing self-regulation and time-management skills.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, universities were forced to adopt a remote learning model, which introduced a number of stressors into college students' everyday life and study habits. The current study investigates if students' study-related stress increased after the pandemic's onset and how individual and contextual factors moderate this potential stress increase. Longitudinal survey data about students' stress levels and self-efficacy in self-regulation were collected before and after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic at a public university (N = 274). Regression analysis results show an overall increase in study-related stress levels after the onset of the pandemic. Students with self-efficacy in self-regulation reported lower stress increases; students with higher mental health impairment and limited time for coursework reported larger stress increases. To address students' stress levels and strengthen coping resources, universities should consider providing students with resources to improve their self-regulation and time-management skills.
