Abstract

Middle school students face various developmental and academic challenges. As these grade levels are characteristically in-between elementary and high school years, the adolescent difficulties may be even more prominent in these stages, pre-pandemic and more so during the pandemic. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships of important variables to individuals in the middle school age group such as self-regulation, stress, and life satisfaction, and to analyze whether these variables differ when students are grouped according to sex, grade level, and socio-economic status which are deemed to be bases of a proposed program. One hundred (115) purposively sampled middle school students in Ekamai International School in Bangkok, Thailand were the respondents of this study. Results indicated that a significant positive relationship was found only between life satisfaction and self-regulation. This study also concludes that students may have a high level of life satisfaction despite experiencing stress. No significant difference was noted in self-regulation, stress, and life satisfaction when students are grouped according to sex, grade level, and socioeconomic status.
