Resources of stress resistance of higher education students in war conditions

Abstract

The demands of higher education in a time of war, combined with the pressures of everyday life, often lead to the development of distress in students. Traditionally, studying at a higher education institution is accompanied by constant exposure to various factors that cause stress in students. In addition to the usual stressors for students, modern higher education students are forced to face wartime-specific stressors. Such stressors include distance learning, emotional stress due to constant air alarms, forced displacement, threats to life and health due to rocket attacks, etc. Long-term and intense distress has a negative impact on mental health, which negatively affects the learning and professional and development of higher education students. ... Thus, today, the demands of the environment often cause students to develop stress. Therefore, it is more important than ever to understand students' resources, as this can significantly help students successfully cope with various stressors. Among the resources of students' stress resistance are psychological competence, self-regulation skills, time management, physical health, social support, curricula, material possessions, extracurricular activities, hobbies, etc. A balanced combination of these resources will contribute to effective stress management and successful adaptation to stressful situations of students during their studies in the languages of war and terrorist attacks.
