Stress is a multidimensional psychological and physiological response that occurs when individuals perceive that environmental demands exceed their available coping resources. Although short-term stress may support motivation and adaptive functioning, persistent or poorly managed stress can negatively influence emotional health, concentration, sleep, interpersonal relationships, academic or occupational functioning, and overall quality of life. The present study evaluated stress-management behaviors and psychological well-being using responses obtained through a structured survey. The analysis included 210 consenting participants. Demographic characteristics, perceived stress experiences, coping behaviors, social support, lifestyle practices, and indicators of psychological well-being were examined using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Mean, median, standard deviation, standard error, frequency, and percentage distributions were calculated. Composite stress-burden and perceived-support indicators were also examined. Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were used to investigate relationships between continuous or ordinal variables, while chi-square tests examined associations between categorical variables. Exploratory analysis also included one-way analysis of variance and internal-consistency assessment where appropriate. The mean stress-burden score was 6.62, with a median of 7.00, a standard deviation of 2.68, and a standard error of approximately 0.19. Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated a small positive association between the examined variables (r = .138, p = .045). Chi-square analysis identified statistically significant associations between age group and high-stress classification (χ² = 11.831, p = .008) and between work/study duration and high-stress classification (χ² = 9.343, p = .025). These findings suggest that stress experiences are not distributed uniformly across demographic and lifestyle groups. The findings also support the importance of strengthening adaptive stress-management behaviors, social connectedness, healthy routines, physical activity, adequate sleep, and accessible psychological support. Because the study used a cross-sectional survey design, the findings should be interpreted as associations rather than evidence of causation.
