Hello list,
My apologies for cross-postings...i'm throwing the net wide.
For those of you who have looked at your NCHA data and decided to get more
information about the stress that college students report impacts their academic
success before planning WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO about student
stress: what instruments, questions, and methodologies have you used to better
define the problem? i'd like to get more information about this thing that
students are consistently reporting as the most common health impediment to
their academic success before attempting to plan an initiative to reduce or
prevent it.
a colleague and i have done a pretty extensive lit review but with limited
usefulness--some studies on specific populations of college students and a few
attempts to examine impact of interventions one time on one campus. Now i'm
wondering about your local campus survey instruments, studies, and/or lit
reviews you've done. Referrals to articles and/or researchers in this area would
be appreciated also. Please respond to me directly and i can compile a list to
post.
thanks much,
sm

Educating Minds and Hearts to Change the World
S.Mart thought for the day:
Charity is to social justice as medical treatment is to primary
prevention/health promotion.
One seeks to fill a gap that is harmful; the other strives to remove the reason
the gap exists in the first place.
If one was 100% effective, there would be no need for the other...
both are important, and they are not the same thing.
