摘要：Studies about the perception of stressors and coping strategies in the work context point out the stressors’ negative impact on performance and psychological well-being. However, there is little research on this topic during the college period. This study consists in a literature review about stress and coping in the academic context, in order to identify the contribution of these studies for the understanding of academic paths; and develop preventive interventions directed to the students’ perceived problems. R esults found a majority of studies in health fields, a variety of events perceived as stressful by students, and the use of strategies specially focused on emotions. These results indicate the importance of further research in the area and of the assessment of specific contexts of study. Keywords : stressor events; university students; coping.
