AbstractWithin a research project on students' everyday academic stress and coping, using semi-structured interviews with 30 students, this study (1) identified the main academic stressors and analysed the relative importance of academic stress in the students' lives, and (2) analyzed the cultural validity within the Portuguese context of the stressful situations used in the Multidimensional Measure of Coping (MMC), by evaluating students' perceptions regarding the level of induced stress and their perceived control over those situations. The results confirmed the importance of school as a significant source of stress, and the adequacy of the MMC for the Portuguese context.
