Abstract

The report looks at the factors contributing to stress among students in chemistry laboratories. A survey was conducted in the Chemistry department, asking students to rate their stress levels regarding various factors that may cause them concern in the lab.

The responses from the participants were analyzed based on gender, program of study, and year of study. The main concerns contributing to stress were found to be finishing on time, lacking theoretical knowledge, and not knowing the proper procedure.
