| 總結: | <p>This study aimed to explore and enlist factors of academic stress among primary school</p><p>students. A qualitative exploratory research which utilized focus group interviews as a mean of</p><p>collecting data was carried out. A total of 80 primary school students were selected from two</p><p>public primary schools in Kuala Lumpur and one private primary school in Selangor. Students</p><p>were divided into groups of 10 students each for focus group interviews. The data was analyzed</p><p>using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Results from analysis revealed six</p><p>superordinate themes of academic stress among primary school students; (1) Teachers related</p><p>stress, (2) Family and home environment related stress, (3) School related stress, (4) Stress arise</p><p>from hectic schedule, (5) Stress due to excessive leisure activities and (6) Peers related stress.</p><p>There were also fourteen sub-themes. As a conclusion, some of the academic stress issues</p><p>experienced by primary school students were common issues faced by students in other levels</p><p>of education. However, there were also a few academic stress issues that were unique to primary</p><p>school students due to the differences in the school environment. The implication of this study</p><p>is that the themes can be used to develop an academic stress questionnaire specifically for</p><p>primary school students.</p> |
