dc.descriptionThe present research focuses on analyzing the relationship between the variables of social support and academic stress in fourth and fifth semester students of Psychology at Universidad Técnica de Babahoyo. Social support is defined as the network of emotional and material resources that provide backing in stressful situations, enhancing the overall well-being of the individual, while academic stress encompasses the tensions arising from the demands of the educational environment, potentially impacting student performance and mental health negatively. The total population of the study comprises 159 students, with a sample of 88 selected through simple random probabilistic sampling. Employing a quantitative correlational approach and a non-experimental, cross-sectional design, psychometric techniques were applied using the SISCO Academic Stress Inventory, developed by Barraza in 2007, and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), created by Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet, and Farley in 1988. The results of the correlation analysis revealed a Spearman coefficient of 0.210, indicating a slight positive correlation between perceived social support and academic stress. However, the p-value of 0.975 with 86 degrees of freedom did not reach statistical significance, suggesting that the observed association could be due to chance or unconsidered variables in this study. Therefore, although there is a tendency towards higher levels of academic stress with greater perception of social support, there was insufficient evidence to assert a clear and significant correlation in this specific group of students.es_ES

dc.description.abstractLa presente investigación se centra en analizar la relación entre las variables de apoyo social y el estrés académico en los estudiantes de cuarto y quinto semestres de la carrera de Psicología en la Universidad Técnica de Babahoyo. El apoyo social se define como la red de recursos emocionales y materiales que ofrecen respaldo ante situaciones estresantes, mejorando el bienestar general del individuo, mientras que el estrés académico abarca las tensiones derivadas de las demandas del entorno educativo, con posibles impactos negativos en el rendimiento y salud mental estudiantil. La población total del estudio comprende 159 estudiantes, seleccionándose una muestra de 88 mediante muestreo aleatorio probabilístico simple. Utilizando un enfoque cuantitativo correlacional y un diseño no experimental y transversal, se aplicaron técnicas psicométricas con el Inventario SISCO de estrés académico, desarrollado por Barraza en 2007, y la Escala Multidimensional del Apoyo Percibido (MSPSS), creada por Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet y Farley en 1988. Los resultados del análisis de correlación revelaron un coeficiente de Spearman de 0.210, indicando una leve correlación positiva entre apoyo social percibido y estrés académico. Sin embargo, el valor p de 0.975 con 86 grados de libertad no alcanzó significancia estadística, esto sugiere que la asociación observada podría deberse al azar o a variables no consideradas en este estudio. Por lo tanto, aunque se observa una tendencia hacia mayores niveles de estrés académico con mayor percepción de apoyo social, no se obtuvo evidencia suficiente para afirmar una correlación clara y significativa en este grupo específico de estudiantes.es_ES
