The validity test in this study is to use content validity and construct validity. The validity coefficient results obtained on the hardiness scale moved from rxy = 0.352 to rxy = 0.830 with a reliability coefficient α = 0.917, while the validity coefficient on the academic stress scale moved from rxy = 0.348 to rxy = 0.822 with a reliability coefficient α = 0.941. Based on data analysis, a correlation value of r = -0.535 was obtained with a significance level of p = 0.000, meaning that the hypothesis was accepted.
