Abstract

Academic stress on college students often triggers a low level of achievement motivation for students. Today in the digital age, psychological measurement instruments are needed that can be quickly, effectively and efficiently used by college counselors. Based on this, it is necessary to apply an Android-based stress measurement instrument. The research for this initial study aims to implement in a limited area of Android version of stress measurement instruments with an acceptable level of acceptability criteria. Data were obtained from 30 students purposively using two measuring instruments. Stress identification instruments namely DASS-42 (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale) with the value of reliability coefficient (α Cronbach) of each variable respectively 0.91, 0.84, 0.90 and Achievement Motivation Scale (revised) with a reliability coefficient of 0.76 (α Cronbach). The results show that the Android-based stress measurement instrument has a moderate level of acceptability. In addition, the results of the hypothesis test showed a correlation between stress levels and achievement motivation in college students. Thus, further coping strategies are needed to reduce stress levels which will be presented in the discussion.
