    Introduction

    Background of the Study

    Several studies have documented that most student-athletes from various colleges

    and universities of all states in the U.S. experience a substantial amount of stress. his is

    because they try to balance the demands of higher education !ith other competing

    aspects of their lives. "lthough everyone is affected differently by stress# lack of sleep#

    financial burdens# academics# and demands from extracurricular activities have been

    identified to have the greatest impact on the college population $%ilson# &''().

    *oreover# Bautista et.al $&'1&) mentioned that traditionally student athletes of the

    different universities in the +hilippines have been raised in an environment that stress is

    commonly encountered !here there is a development in a mentality that the !elfare of

    the team and the overall athletic performance takes priority over personal and academic

    performance.

    In fact# almost every day# student athletes of "teneo de ,avao University uggle

    multiple responsibilities# and challenges that may influence their performance in the

    sports they belong in as !ell as their academic performance. he "thletic ,irector# *r.

    %illiam I. amire/ stated that most of them !ould complain about prioriti/ing the

    demands of their practices and studies and a lot of these students cannot maintain the

    grades re0uired for them to 0ualify for varsity retention. Some of them !ould ust 0uit

    sports# !hile others !ere forcefully removed from their sport teams because they cannot

    maintain the minimum grade policy set by the athletics office.

    hese notable and evident problems prompted the researchers to choose this

    study. "s mentioned by *r. amire/# some of the university s student athletes !ere

    struggling to balance their priorities in practices for competitions and the academic

    standing they have to maintain. he researchers find this problem to be extremely

    alarming not only for the student sector but also for the university because if these

    student athletes !ill not find any solution to manage these coping problems# then the

    university s sports programs and athletic office !ould have to suffer from shortage of

    participants in the sports competitions that are very significant in maintaining the prestigeof the university. In addition to that# as researchers# !e are eager to kno! if there is a

    significant relationship bet!een the coping management of these athletes and their

    academic performance.

    heoretical 2rame!ork

    he study is anchored on Sister Callista oy s "daptation *odel $ "*). 3er

    concepts of nursing# person# health# and environment are interrelated to this central

    concept. he person continually scans the environment for stimuli. Ultimately# a response

    is made and adaptation occurs. hat adaptive response may be either an adaptive or an

    ineffective response. "daptive responses are those that promote integrity and help the

    person to achieve the goals of adaptation that is survival# gro!th# mastery and person and

    environmental transformations. 4ursing has the uni0ue goal to assist the persons

    adaptation effort by managing the environment. "daptation occurs !hen the person

    responds positively to environment changes. his adaptive response promotes the

    &

    integrity of the person# !hich leads to health.

    Adaptation problems are broad areas of concern related to adaptation. These

    describe the difficulties related to the indicators of positive adaptation. Roy states,

    it can be noted at this point that the distinction being made between adaptation

    problems and nursing diagnoses is based on the developing work in both of these

    fields. At this point, adaptation problems are seen not as nursing diagnoses, but as

    areas of concern for the nurse related to adapting person or group.

    "* has classified coping processes into t!o subsystems5 egulator and

    Cognator. In egulator subsystem# individuals respond automatically to the

    environmental stimuli through innate# physiological adaptive processes. hese processes

    include neural# chemical and endocrine channels. he Cognator subsystem processes

    changes in the environment through cognitive and emotional channels involve personal

    perception and information processing# learning# udgment and emotion $ ommey#&''&).

    Stress is an indispensable and inevitable concomitant of human living-

    indispensable because !ithout some stress !e !ould be listless and apathetic creatures#

    and inevitable because it relates to any external event# be it pleasurable or anxiety

    appraisals of coping options may have their effect on behavior through the reduction of

    situation is controllable# $b) the source of the stress is kno!n# or $c) !hen the outcome

    measures are long term and necessitate remaining Kon taskK even after the period of

    inactivity follo!ing the stressor. 2or example# after an opponent achieves success# the

    athlete may ask the coach for advice to prevent the same mistake occurring again $e.g.#

    K3o! can I prevent them from successfully using that play again=K)# take responsibility

    for the error $e.g.# K I should have had that one coachK)# and or analy/e the problem and

    plan for a different response in the future $"nshel et al.# 1 E). hese strategies allo! the

    athlete to regain control of the unpleasant situation. Instead# ho!ever# the athlete may

    decide to use avoidance coping by ignoring the situation such as receiving a coachJsreprimand or an unpleasant response from spectators.

    %hen the duration of the stressor is taken into account# in general# avoidance

    coping is often more effective for short-term stressors $i.e.# one !eek or less)# !hile

    approach coping is more effective for stressors exceeding one !eek in duration.

    "pproach and avoidance coping has been supported using confirmatory factor analysis in

    previous sport-related studies $e.g.# "nshel# 1 AH "nshel# %illiams# D %illiams# &'''H

    a!storne# "nshel# D Caputi# &'''). ?ne factor that !ill dictate the athleteJs selection of

    a coping strategy is the source of stress to !hich it is linked.

    not probableM $>a/arus D 2olkman# 1 # ). +roblem-solving skills are also important

    resources for coping. +roblem-solving skills include the ability to search for information#

    analy/e a situation in order to identify the problem and generate courses of action# !eigh

    the alternatives !ith respect to outcomes# and select and implement an appropriate plan

    appropriate and effective# is also a coping resource. Social skills facilitate problem-

    solving and increases the ability to turn to others for support $>a/arus D 2olkman# 1 ).

    he social support received from others# !hich can be emotional# informational

    and or tangible# is also an important resource as !ell as material resources such as

    money. hose !ho have monetary resources fre0uently have greater coping resources or

    options available to them. In addition to looking at the importance of resources# it is also

    necessary to look at the constraints that exist !hich can impede the utili/ation of these

    coping resources. +ersonal constraints# such as cultural values or beliefs# can serve to

    inhibit the use of resources $>a/arus D 2olkman# 1 ). 2or example# individuals !hohave social support available to them but are unable to use them because of ho! they

    vie! this support. hey may decline help because they see it as implying that they are

    needy or helpless. Gnvironmental constraints# especially material resources such as

    money# may also prohibit an individual from utili/ing a needed or valuable resource. he

    level of threat a person experiences can also play a role in coping.

    he oy s adaptation model is currently one of the most !idely used frame!orks

    in nursing practice# being applied by hundreds of thousands of nurse in countries all over

    the !orld. he oy s adaptation model presents the person as a holistic adaptive system

    in constant interaction !ith the internal and the external environment. he main ask of

    the human system is to maintain integrity in the face of environmental stimuli $+hillips#

    &'1'). he goal of nursing is to foster successful adaptation. "ccording to oy and

    "ndre!s $1 )# adaptation refers to Nthe process and outcome !hereby thinking and

    feeling persons as individuals or in groups# use conscious a!areness and choice to create

    human and environmental integrationM $p.(

    he adaptation level represents the condition of the life processes. hree levels

    are described by oy5 integrated# compensatory# and compromised life processes. "n

    integrated life process may change to a compensatory process# !hich attempts to

    reestablish adaptation. If the compensatory processes are not ade0uate# compromised

    processes result $ oy# &'' ).

    Coping processes in the oy adaptation model include both innate coping

    mechanisms and ac0uired coping mechanisms. Innate coping processes are genetically

    determined or common to the speciesH they are generally vie!ed as autonomic processes.

    In contrast# ac0uired coping processes are learned or developed through customaryresponses $ oy# &'' ).

    he process for coping in the oy adaptation model are further categori/ed as

    Nthe regulator and cognator subsystems as they apply to individuals# and the stabili/er

    and innovator subsystems as applied to groupsM. " basic type of adaptive process# the

    regulator subsystem responds through neural# chemical# and endocrine coping channels.

    Stimuli from the internal and external environment act as inputs through the senses to the

    nervous system# thereby affecting the fluid# electrolyte. "nd acid-base balance# as !ell as

    the endocrine system. his information is all channeled automatically# !ith the body

    producing an automatic# unconscious response to it. he second adaptive process# the

    cognator subsystem# responds through four cognitive- emotional channels5 perceptual and

    information processing# learning# udgment# and emotion. +erceptual and information

    processing includes activities of selective attention# coding and memory. >earning

    involves imitation# reinforcement# and insight. @udgment includes problem solving and

    stabili/er- innovator fuction to maintain integrated life processes. hese life processes

    !hether integrated# compensatory or compromised are manifested in behaviors of the

    individual or group. Behavior is vie!ed as an output of the human system and takes the

    form of either adaptive responses or ineffective responses. hese responses serve as

    feedback to the systems# !ith the human system using this information to decide !hether

    to increase or decrease it efforts to cope !ith the stimuli $ oy# &'' ).

    "lthough one can identify specific processes inherent in the regulator- cognator

    subsystems# it is not possible to directly observe the functioning of these systems. he behaviors can be observed in four categories# or adaptive modes5 physiologic- physical

    mode# self- concept group identify mode# role function mode and interdependence !ith

    the environment can be carried out and adaptation can be observed $ oy# &'' ).

    here are many different types of coping# and some are more functional and

    create a less stressful experience for the individual !hile others are considered more

    maladaptive and create more a more stressful experience for the person. he adaptation

    model is also useful in educational setting. oy states that the model defines for students

    the distinct purpose of nursing !hich is to promote man s adaptation in each of the

    adaptive modes in situations of health and illness. he oy adaptation model !as one of
