“…In agreement with several previous studies addressing the importance of mental health issues in university students (Boujut et al, 2009;Lafay et al, 2003;Lassarre et al, 2003;Neveu et al, 2010;Strenna, Chahraoui, & Vinay, 2009), our results show that students from our sample (n = 483) display high rates of anxiety and depression (scores-threshold PSS-10).…”

“…The question of university life being a potentially stressful situation has been covered by numerous studies (Boujut & Décamps, 2012;Boujut, Koleck, Bruchon-Schweitzer, & Bourgeois, 2009;Grebot & Barumandzadeh, 2005;Mazé & Verlhiac, 2013;Neveu et al, 2010). According to scientific literature, university students display high levels and rates of psychological distress, such as depression, anxiety, and in particular stress (Furr, Westefeld, McConnell, & Jenkins, 2001;Lafay, Manzanera, Papet, Marcelli, & Senon, 2003;Nerdrum et al, 2006;Neveu et al, 2010;Vandentorren, Verret, Vignonde, & Maurice-Tison, 2005).…”

Introduction and goal: Whilst considering attending university as a potentially stressful situation, and in order to highlight predictors of stress in students, our goal is to assess the link between perceived stress and personality traits in this population. Methodology: We used, via online questionnaires, the perceived stress scale (PSS 10) and the French Big Five Inventory (BFI-Fr). The population consists of French university students (n = 483, Average age = 20.23, σ = 1.99). Results: The results show that 86.3% of students from the sample suffer from anxiety and 79.3% display depressive symptoms according to the PSS-10 scale. The regression model (R² = 0.48, p < 0.000)shows that conscientiousness (β = -0.2; p = 0.0000) negatively predicts perceived stress, whereas extraversion (β = 0.07; p = 0.03) and neuroticism (β = 0.66; p = 0.0000) predict it positively. Conclusion: The fact that neuroticism and extraversion predict a high level of perceived stress, whereas consciousness predicts a low level of perceived stress in students allows us to consider using this data for preventative and educational approaches to counter stress in this population.

“…Some studies also show that, compared to individuals of the same age (Roberts et al, 1999; Adlaf et al, 2005; Boujut et al, 2009) and, in general, to any other population (Nerdrum et al, 2006; Blanco et al, 2008; Walsh et al, 2010; Moreira and Telzer, 2015), students have more psychological problems.…”

“…In fact, depression is common in students from 15 to 24 years olds (Lafay et al, 2003). According to a French study (Boujut et al, 2009), 27, 18, and 3% of college students suffer from mild, moderate and severe depression, respectively. Anxiety (Neveu et al, 2010) and feeling overwhelmed are actually quite typical of college students, including those who succeed (Lassarre et al, 2003).…”

University students often face different stressful situations and preoccupations: the first contact with the university, the freedom of schedule organization, the selection of their master's degree, very selective fields, etc. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a model of vulnerability to stress in French college students. Stress factors were evaluated by a battery of six scales that was accessible online during 3 months. A total of 483 students, aged between 18 and 24 years (Mean = 20.23, standard deviation = 1.99), was included in the study. The results showed that 72.9, 86.3, and 79.3% of them were suffering from psychological distress, anxiety and depressive symptoms, respectively. More than half the sample was also suffering from low self-esteem (57.6%), little optimism (56.7%), and a low sense of self-efficacy (62.7%). Regression analyses revealed that life satisfaction, self-esteem, optimism, self-efficacy and psychological distress were the most important predictors of stress. These findings allow us to better understand stress-vulnerability factors in students and drive us to substantially consider them in prevention programs.

“…4,5 Studies in Europe 6,7 have reported that a popular name for college weight gain, "freshman 15," was coined due to the myth that fi rst-year university students gain 15 pounds; although the students studied did gain weight over the fi rst year, the typical gain was smaller in reality than in the myth. 8,9 During freshman year, changes in diet, drinking, and exercise habits can continue to impact students' weight and health over time. 10 A recent study suggested that this weight gain persists over 4 years, indicating that it may have ramifi cations later in life.…”
