Abstract
Stress and anxiety are common mental health problems
among undergraduate students. This study investigated the level of stress and
anxiety among undergraduate students during their travel. The study used a
survey method using questionnaires and statistical data analysis. Using a
convenient selection method, 308 college students who had traveled in the past
year were analyzed. The results of the study showed that undergraduate students
had similar levels of stress and anxiety during their travel. There was a
positive correlation between students' stress and anxiety during their travel.
There was no significant statistical difference in gender or year of study
regarding perceived stress and anxiety during travel. College students who
frequently traveled to escape pressure purposes felt less stressed about their
abilities. Studies in the future can further investigate this by directly
researching the context of travel in terms of time, frequency, or with specific
goals.
