After the pretest, the participants in experimental group were given cognitive-behavioral techniques training for one hours in 8 sessions. The control group did not receive any traning in all these session. After the sessions, these groups were evaluated once again.

At the individual level, it leads to success in goal achievement and increasing self-esteem and happiness.

The results also indicate that self-regulation and self-efficacy affect academic stress directly. The pattern revealed by this study indicates that self-regulation affects academic stress through self-efficacy that acts as a mediator variable. Correspondence conce...
