The present study investigates the level of academic stress among B.Ed. students in selected teacher education institutions of Khargone district, Madhya Pradesh. It further examines differences in academic stress with respect to selected demographic variables such as gender, locality, academic stream, and type of institution management.
A descriptive survey method was adopted for the study. A sample of 200 B.Ed. students (both male and female) was selected using simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through a self-developed Academic Stress Scale consisting of 30 items on a five-point Likert scale. The findings reveal that 74% of students experience moderate academic stress, 18% experience high stress, and 8% experience low stress. The study further shows that there is no significant difference in academic stress with respect to gender, locality, and academic stream, whereas a significant difference is observed based on institutional management (government vs private).
