Developing Coping Mechanisms for Stress Management of Researchers
Description
Stress is defined as an introverted reaction of individuals to situations that they perceive as a challenge or threat, or as a situation that is sometimes exposed as a result of time pressure, sometimes as a result of an unexpected event or reaction (Durna, 2006). It generally includes the psychological reactions to those threats or challenges that have an impact on well-being or physical conditions (Lazaruz, 1996; 2006). Research demonstrated that Ph.D. students, especially the students in the thesis period, are in the risk groups in terms of high stress and mental health problems (Ali & Kohun, 2006; Evans, Bira, & Vanderford, 2019; Levecque et al., 2017; Mantai & Dowling, 2015; Waight. and Giardonobe, 2018). Doctoral education has a long-term nature that requires constant effort and dedication. Progress can be somewhat slow and challenging emotionally as well as cognitively (Mantai & Dowling, 2015). Recent research on the mental health of doctoral candidates shows that high-stress levels can be caused or exacerbated by characteristics of the doctoral training environment and organizational functioning (Mackie and Bates, 2019).
