The data collection technique was carried out through the distribution of questionnaire to respondents, while the data analysis technique used Pearson correlation tests and linear regression. The results showed that there was a significant negative relationship between concentration and academic stress (r = -0.48, p = 0.003), US well US between achievement motivation and academic stress (r = -0.52, p = 0.001). The regression model used showed that concentration and motivation for achievement could explain 49%ofthe variabilityofacademic stress.
