The paradigm of the exam session, a Bermuda triangle for students

Abstract

The present study aims to identify the real causes that lead to the connection between exam sessions and stress. In this regard, the answers of 97 respondents aged between 19 and 44 years old were analysed. The stress can be generated by the multiple roles that students have acquired as a result of various social contexts, the responsibilities that derive from these roles and the lack of a study routine.
