A SUMMARY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STRESS AND STUDENT PRODUCTIVITY

Students undergo much stress while they are at school. This stress comes from a combination of pressures from co-students and educators. The numerous workloads are sometimes hard to bear and stress becomes evident, resulting in failing grades and remedial classes.

Stress affects student productivity. It is a given that stress drives students to excel, yet when left unmanaged, it can ruin lives. Managing stress is a significant skill that everyone should learn.

LESSENED PRODUCTIVITY BECAUSE OF STRESS

Having study strategies can be smart, but a student has to realize how stress affects school work.

Stress causes emotional turmoil which eventually impacts a student’s general performance. The most common psychological manifestations of stress are:

**Irritability**—when a student becomes irritable, his relationships with this schoolmates, and even teachers, could be affected. This is one way stress affects student productivity. **Loss of concentration**—when this happens, a student is less likely to memorize information that is needed on exams and he would not be able to fully participate with his colleagues. **Forgetfulnes**s—this is the last thing any student would need. Being forgetful would mean not being able to recall necessary details or information that would answer important exams. **Depression**—when a student is depressed, he is more likely to concentrate on his despair rather than on his projects and other school tasks. Also, depression is clearly manifested on the works of melancholic individuals—and these works are oftentimes sub- standard. **Disorganization**—when a student becomes disorganized, he is not able to manage his schedule and his activities and all his work are jumbled. This is yet another way stress affects student productivity. **Anxiety**—this condition is a prelude to more serious mental illnesses.
