HUBUNGAN ANTARA TINGKAT STRES AKADEMIK DENGAN EMOTIONAL EATING PADA MAHASISWA PROGRAM STUDI KEPERAWATAN DI UNIVERSITAS SRIWIJAYA
Nursing students often face high academic demands in striving to achieve good academic performance. These conditions may trigger academic stress, which can potentially influence eating behavior, one of which is emotional eating. This study aims to examine the relationship between academic stress levels and emotional eating among students of the Nursing Study Program at Sriwijaya University. This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 142 participants selected using a stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected using the Indonesian version of the Perceived Academic Stress Scale (PASS) to measure academic stress levels and the Indonesian version of the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ-E) 13-item to assess emotional eating. Data analysis was conducted using the Spearman Rank test. The results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0,05), indicating a significant relationship between academic stress levels and emotional eating among Nursing Study Program students at Sriwijaya University. The findings suggest that higher levels of academic stress are associated with a greater tendency toward emotional eating. Therefore, mental health support for students is essential.
