Advanced age is someone who has reached the age of 60 years and over. In the elderly found various physical and psychological changes that cause stress. But with spirituality as adaptation and coping, the elderly will be able to cope with the stress they experience. This study aims to identify the relationship between spirituality and stress in the elderly by using correlative design. The sample in this study were 50 elderly people in the village of Gasaribu Laguboti Toba Samosir. Determination of the number of samples based on power analysis tables and taken using simple random sampling technique. Data collection was conducted on April 4 to May 4, 2018 using a questionnaire containing questions and statements about demographic, spirituality and stress data in the elderly. From the research, it was found that 88% of the elderly were at a high level of spirituality and 12% at moderate levels of spirituality. Meanwhile 76% of the elderly were in the category of mild stress and 24% in the moderate stress category. Spirituality is negatively related to a weak relationship with stress in the elderly (r = - 0.182) with an unacceptable significance value (p> 0.05) so it can be concluded that the research hypothesis is unacceptable, meaning there is no relationship between spirituality and stress in further age in the village of Gasaribu Laguboti Toba Samosir. This caused by various factors including socio-economic factors, culture, gender, education, social environment, crisis and transition aspects, elderly personal characteristics, one's adaptation involving multiple dimensions, livelihood and shelter assistance and the opportunity to develop potential self. Information provided can help improve nursing services for the elderly, especially psychologically.   Usia lanjut adalah seseorang yang telah mencapai usia 60 tahun ke atas. Pada lansia ditemukan berbagai perubahan fisik dan psikologis yang dapat menyebabkan stres. Tetapi dengan adaptasi dan koping spiritualitas, para lansia akan mampu mengatasi tekanan yang mereka alami.

Spiritualitas berhubungan negatif dengan hubungan yang lemah dengan stres pada lansia (r = - 0,182) dengan nilai signifikansi yang tidak dapat diterima (p> 0,05) sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa hipotesis penelitian tidak dapat diterima, artinya tidak ada hubungan antara spiritualitas dan stres pada usia lanjut di desa Gasaribu Laguboti Toba Samosir. Hal ini disebabkan oleh berbagai faktor termasuk faktor sosial-ekonomi, budaya, gender, pendidikan, lingkungan sosial, aspek krisis dan transisi, karakteristik pribadi lansia, adaptasi seseorang yang melibatkan berbagai dimensi, bantuan mata pencaharian dan tempat tinggal dan kesempatan untuk mengembangkan potensi diri.

The study aimed at identifying perceived sources of stress and coping strategies among secondary school teachers in Ludewa District. The study was guided by Transactional or Cognitive Theory of Psychological Stress and Coping. It employed the quantitative approach through descriptive statistics in terms of frequencies and percentages. Through simple random sampling, eight out of 22 schools were selected to participate in the study. From the eight schools, 100 teachers were selected through simple random sampling but the response rate was 74. Therefore, 74 teachers participated to fill the questionnaire. The first category of perceived stressors is for those which were very highly rated: delay in promotion, poor working condition, low salary for work, worried from student performance, overwork and lack of time to spend with family. The second category is for those which were highly rated: poor administrations, lack of social services, loans from different organizations, benefit from work and students’ misbehavior. Lowly rated source of stress was attending duties on weekends while very lowly rated sources were little acknowledgment from superior and trouble with colleagues. The study gives a number of recommendations; these include that the government should employ more teachers to reduce teachers’ overwork which is cited as one of stressors. Heads of schools should involve all teachers in decision making and treat them equally. School under investigation should employ mentoring and counseling techniques which will motivate teachers to share their economic and social problems in order to curb unnecessary stresses. Finally, teachers should employ such stress management strategies as joining in social clubs, attending physical exercises like sports and games and seeking support from either co- workers or supervisors in order to curb stressful challenges.

Stress is common among nursing students and it has been exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study examined nursing students’ stress levels and their coping strategies in clinical practice before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A repeated-measures study design was used to examine the relationship between nursing students’ stress levels and coping strategies before and during the pandemic. Confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to validate the survey and a student T-test was used to compare the level of stress and coping strategies among 131 nursing students. The STROBE checklist was used. During COVID-19, there was a reliable and accurate relationship between stress and coping strategies. Furthermore, both stress and coping strategy scores were lower before COVID-19 and higher during COVID-19. Nursing students are struggling to achieve a healthy stress-coping strategy during the pandemic. There is a need for the introduction of stress management programs to help foster healthy coping skills. Students are important resources for our health system and society and will continue to be vital long term. It is now up to both nursing educators and health administrators to identify and implement the needed improvements in training and safety measures because they are essential for the health of the patient as well as future pandemics.

Os cursos da área da saúde possuem extensa carga horária de estágios, aulas práticas, relatórios e trabalho de conclusão de curso. Há ainda, na área da Enfermagem, inerente desgaste relacionado ao contato direto com doenças e mortes que a futura profissão lhes ocasiona nos estágios em instituições de saúde. Isso torna o ambiente acadêmico envolto em sentimentos de grande ansiedade e estresse. Dessa forma, os estudantes podem apresentar níveis elevados de estresse que podem causar o adoecimento físico e psíquico e comprometer a saúde mental deles. Por essas razões, este trabalho, por meio de pesquisa quantitativa, tem o intuito de descrever a prevalência de estresse e as estratégias de coping utilizadas nos estudantes do curso de Enfermagem. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a aplicação de um questionário sociodemográfico, escala Nível de Estresse nos Estudantes (N.I.S.E.S.T.E) e o Inventário de Resolução de Problemas (I.R.P). O maior nível de estresse encontrado foi em relação à preocupação com os estágios (2,9) e preocupação com os exames (2,73). Os universitários utilizam estratégias de coping positivas como atitude de confronto e resolução de problemas (3,67) e atitude ativa de não inferências (3,37). O nível de estresse dos universitários é considerado médio pela utilização de estratégias de coping positivas, o que colabora para que o estresse não seja alto e prejudicial.   STRESS LEVEL AND COPING STRATEGIES FOR SENIOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS   ABSTRACT The health degree programs bear an extensive internship workload, practical classes, reports, and final paper. There is also, in Nursing degree, inherent physical wear related to personal contact to diseases and deaths that the student’s future profession causes during the internship in Health Institutions.  As a consequence, the academic environment is surrounded by stress and anxiety feelings. Accordingly, students may present high levels of stress and result in physical and psychological illnesses and jeopardize their mental health. Thus, this paper aims through quantitative research to describe stress relevance and coping strategies used by students at Nursing school. The instruments used were the application of a sociodemographic questionnaire, for College Undergraduate Stress Scale (CUSS), and Problem Solving Inventory (PSI). The highest level demonstrated was regarding internship (2,9) and concerns with exams (2,73). Students used positive coping strategies as confront attitudes and solving problems (3,67), and non-inference active attitudes (3,37). According to positive coping strategies, the student’s stress level was considered medium; it contributes so that stress will not be high and harmful.    Descriptors: Psychological Stress.
