Abstract

The following presentation aims to explore the relationships between stress, social support, campus connectedness, wellness/academic outcomes, and overall happiness. Through the use of empirical data collected from St. John Fisher University students, the study will address if stress has a significant negative association with happiness, subjective wellbeing, mental health, and poor academic outcomes, as well as if campus connectedness and social support from friends, family, and significant others have a significantly positive association with overall wellbeing and positive academic outcomes while significantly moderating the relationship between stress and happiness, subjective wellbeing, mental health, academic self-efficacy, academic satisfaction, and academic grit.
