Student Stress and Academic Satisfaction: A Mixed Methods Exploratory Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Student satisfaction has implications for student academic success, engagement, and retention within their programs. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between three levels of student stress and satisfaction in an undergraduate program. To explore: 1) the distribution of stress and program satisfaction within the program; 2) associations between measures of student stress and program level satisfaction; and 3) student perceptions about stress and program satisfaction using qualitative data. Online questionnaires were administered to 24 students in a small, undergraduate health sciences honours program. Correlational analysis was used to fulfill the objectives, which were triangulated with qualitative data. Levels of stress were low and academic satisfaction high within this program. Qualitative results suggest a small program size and social support as explanatory factors. A negative correlation was found between burnout and overall program satisfaction. Qualitative findings indicate that program context and individual characteristics may describe this association. This study has implication in promoting adaptive personality traits within students and facilitating supportive and engaging program environments to ensure student success.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
