    Stress is known to be a normal reaction of the human body, especially
    when facing challenges and changes. These challenges and changes can
    be called stressors. It’s the stimulus for the body to react and undergo to
    stress. One of the stressors is the Academic Stress which is defined to be
    a response from academic-related demands that a student can't keep up
    with.
     
    According to Lal (2014), academic stress is a mental distress that's
    associated with frustration of an academic failure.
     
    On the other hand, sleep habits pertain to time to bed, time to rise, and
    such, which one often or always do.
     
    This research, which is a Descriptive Study that uses Quantitative
    method, aims to describe the Academic Stress in Sleeping Habits that
    our chosen population has.

    RATIONALE

    Stress is not new to us since almost every day, we are encountering


    challenges and changes ourselves. It’s the same way with Academic
    Stress to students, there’s an endless demands, deadlines, and workloads
    to take care of. In the recent studies in this area, academic stress is
    associated with sleeping difficulties, sleep disturbances, sleeping
    problems, and sleep patterns. Meanwhile sleeping habits are associated
    with words like, academic performance, classroom behavior, and
    sleepiness. The Academic Stress and Sleeping habits, are only linked to
    these words respectively. No study or publication to date has tackled
    about describing Academic Stress in Sleeping Habits, therefore this
    study is imperative to be studied for, especially in this situation that
    academic stress have increased beyond maximum, and sleeping habits
    are deemed to be unimportant and are practiced badly. This will be
    based on the data that this research will generate through the use of
    surveys.

    We are going to measure the majority of stress level though, first and
    foremost, generating data through the use of survey. Surveys are used as
    instruments, of course, but in this study, we are going to use a 51-item
    arranged on a Likert scale format. It’s a scale from 1, which means never
    true, up to 5 which means always true. It assesses the five categories of
    academic stressors namely: frustrations, conflicts, pressures, changes.
    And self-imposed. Then the four categories that describes reactions to
    stressors, which are psychological, emotional, behavioral, and cognitive.

    There’s no need to verify its reliability and validity because it’s been
    reported earlier (Gadzella, 1991; Gadzella, Masten & Stacks, 1998). It’s
    Gadzella’s Student-life stress Inventory (SLSI) (1991) Which is
    designed to assess the students’ perceived stress and reaction to stress.
    Hence, the level of stress I am pertaining to is when their result has a
    higher total of “always true” in their survey.
