Resumen
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo principal describir y relacionar los niveles de estrés académico y el afrontamiento que utiliza un grupo de 198 estudiantes universitarios de los primeros años dentro de la universidad. Para ello, se empleó el Inventario SISCO del estrés académico (Barraza, 2007) y la Escala de Afrontamiento para Adolescentes (ACS, Frydenberg & Lewis, 1997). Luego de ello, se realizaron los análisis respectivos y se hallaron las correlaciones más significativas entre estrés académico y los estilos y estrategias de afrontamiento. Se halló un nivel promedio de estrés académico “medianamente alto” en este grupo, y las situaciones principalmente generadoras de estrés fueron las evaluaciones y la sobrecarga académica. En cuanto a la sintomatología experimentada, las reacciones psicológicas fueron las principales. Asimismo, los alumnos de esta muestra hacen un mayor uso del estilo de afrontamiento resolver el problema. Finalmente, en cuanto a la relación entre ambas variables, se observa que el nivel de estrés percibido correlaciona directamente con el estilo de afrontamiento no productivo e indirectamente con el estilo resolver el problema.

It was used the SISCO inventory of academic stress (Barraza, 2007), and the adolescent coping scale (ACS, Frydenberg & Lewis, 1997). After that, the respective analyzes were done, and the significant correlations between academic stress and coping styles and strategies, were found. We found a high academic stress level in this population, and the mainly generating stress situations were the assessments and academic overload.
