Le résumé fourni par la source

Academic stress is an condition that arises when academic demands exceed an individual's resources or ability to deal with them. Factors that influence academic stress can be grouped into two, namely internal factors that come from within the individual such as hardiness personality. Individuals with hardiness personality tend to be able to control the situations they face, have a high commitment to various activities in life, and view change as a challenge. Another internal factor is optimism, namely the people’s conviction that negative incidents or failures are transient, unrelated to personal errors, and do not impact operations overall. This study attempts to explain how working student’s academic stress is related to their hardiness personality and optimism. The population of this study were working students in Surabaya. The sample in this study was 418 students with the criteria of active students and having part-time or full-time jobs. The methodology employed in this study was quantitative, and a scale that has undergone validity and reliability testing was used to collect data. Three measures were employed: the academic stress scale, the hardiness personality scale, and the optimism scale. The results showed that hardiness personality influenced academic stress in working students. Optimism did not affect academic stress in working students.
