  The Effect of Emotional Regulation on Stress

  ×

  This study aims to determine the stress conditions and emotional regulation in students of SMP Negeri 1 Pantai Labu, and to analyze the effect of emotional regulation on their stress levels. The study used a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The study sample consisted of 399 students selected through a sampling technique appropriate to the characteristics of the population. Data collection was conducted using a closed questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis included prerequisite tests (normality and linearity tests) and hypothesis testing through Pearson correlation analysis and simple linear regression. The results showed that there was a significant influence between emotional regulation and student stress, evidenced by a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. The regression equation obtained was Y = 50.227 + 0.376X, with a beta coefficient value of 0.266. This indicates that emotional regulation plays a role in determining stress levels, although the direction of the relationship depends on the interpretation of the scale used. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.071 indicates that emotional regulation explains 7.1% of the variation in stress in students, while the rest is influenced by other factors outside the variables studied. This study concluded that students' ability to manage their emotions contributes to reducing stress levels, although this contribution is limited. Therefore, improving emotional regulation skills needs to be considered as a strategy for managing stress among students.
