ABSTRACT

This study explores academic pressure and stress among college students in Thrissur, Kerala—a region known for its competitive academic environment. Using primary data from questionnaires administered across diverse academic programs, the research examines stress in relation to gender, employment, food habits, and access to mental health support based on institutional type. It also analyses the link between sleep duration and time spent on coursework. Data were analysed using frequencies, graphical methods, and chi-square tests in R Studio. The findings aim to guide educational institutions and policymakers in developing student-centered interventions that support both academic performance and mental well-being.
