Abstract
The study to determine the effect of multiple stress management intervention on stress, motivation and academic performance of university automobile technology education students in South-South, Nigeria. Two purposes with corresponding research questions and one hypothesis were generated, answered and tested, respectively. The study employed quasi-experimental design, the pretest, posttest non-equivalent control group design. The population for the study was 97 first year Automobile technology education students. The instruments used for data collection were validated by three experts and has overall reliability coefficients of 0.77. Data analysis was carried out using mean and standard deviation. MANCOVA was used to test the hypothesis. The findings revealed significant effect of the intervention on student’s level of stress experience and academic performance. This implies effective reduction in students stress experience (viz: physiological, cognitive, emotional and behavioural responses to stress as well as improved academic performance. It was therefore recommended among others that multiple stress management intervention should be integrated in Automobile technology education and other engineering/technology based programmes to foster effective stress management practices among students. Also, there is the need for stress management training for all levels of automobile technology education students with involvement of capability within the university.
