The Relationship between Understanding of Materials and Burnout with Stress Levels of Nursing Students at Bale Bandung University (UNIBBA) In E-Learning Learning During the Covid-19 Pandemic

Abstract

Covid-19 has made many changes, especially in the education sector, which has shifted the learning process which is generally carried out face-to-face to e-learning. This system change has an impact on the psychosocial conditions of students who are not familiar with this method, one of which is the increase in student stress. This is caused by various factors, including an understanding of the material provided, learning boredom that arises, and so on. This study aims to determine the level of understanding of the material and the saturation of learning with the stress level of nursing students at Bale Bandung University (UNIBBA) in e-learning during the covid-19 pandemic. The research design used a cross-sectional with a correlational approach. A sample of 86 nursing students aged 17-26 years was taken by purposive sampling. The research instrument used a questionnaire sheet via a google form and a statistical test with Spearman Correlation Rank at an error rate of 5%. The results showed that most of them experienced mild stress (62.8%), almost all students were quite good at understanding the material (76.7%), and almost all of them experienced learning boredom at a moderate level (76.7%). From the results of the Spearman Rank test, it was concluded that there was a relationship between understanding of the material and stress levels (correlation coefficient -0.221, p-value 0.041), and there was a relationship between learning saturation and student stress levels (correlation coefficient 0.353 and p-value 0.001). Thus, the researcher advises students to continue to increase coping stress, especially in the e-learning learning process by controlling the emotional feelings that arise due to the stressful situation.
