Abstract :
his study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and
parental social support with academic stress in junior high school students.
The hypothesis in this study is there is a relationship between self-efficacy
and parental social support with academic stress in junior high school
students. Subjects in this study were 52 students of Kanisius Junior High
School class VII and VIII, who were chosen by stratified cluster sampling.
This study uses three scales, namely Self-Efficacy Scale, Parental Social
Support Scale, and Academic Stress Scale. The results of data analysis
using multiple regressions analysis technique showed significant results,
where there is a relationship between self-efficacy and parental social
support with academic stress in junior high school students with R = 0,821,
and F(count) = 50.841 with p = 0.000. R
= 0.675 means that 67.5% of the
variation in academic stress variable can be explained by self-efficacy
variable and parental social support variable, while the remaining 32.5% is
explained by other variables. Furthermore, the correlation between selfefficacy
and
academic
stress
in
junior
high
school
students
r
=
-0,787
with
p<0.01,
which indicates that there is a significant negative relationship
between self-efficacy and academic stress in junior high school students.
The correlation between parental social support and academic stress in
junior high school students r = -0.566 with p<0.01, which indicates that there
is a significant negative relationship between parental social support and
academic stress in junior high school students. So, it can be concluded that
the hypothesis in this study was accepted.
