This study aims to test empirically the effect of self adjustment, social support, visual learning style on academic stress in seventh grade students of SMP Negeri X Yogyakarta. This research method is a quantitative method with a Likert scale model as a data collection tool.  The subjects of this study were seventh grade students of SMP X Yogyakarta. The sampling technique was carried out by cluster random sampling technique. Data analysis of this research is multiple regression analysis technique with the help of SPSS 21 program. The results of data analysis showed: (1) there was a very significant influence between self-adjustment, social support, visual learning style on academic stress as indicated by F reg = 107.076 with p value = 0.000 (p <0.01). (2) there is an effect of adjustment to academic stress which is indicated by the value of t = -13,349 with a value of p = 0.000 (p <0.01). (3) there is no significant effect between social support and academic stress as indicated by the value of t = -1.726 with a value of p = 0.086 (p>0.01). (4) There is no significant effect between visual learning style and academic stress which can be seen from the value of t = 1.944 with a value of p = 0.054 (p>0.01). The conclusion of this research is that there is an effect of self adjustment, social support, visual learning style on academic stress.

Hospital services that require dedication to the patient's health conditions must be carried out with full responsibility and qualified competence. One profession that requires good service skills is the nursing profession. Nurses must have confidence in their ability to provide the best service to patients in order to ensure that every treatment action is carried out effectively and optimally. Therefore, the task of providing services for nurses in hospitals requires a sense of ability to succeed (self-efficacy) in each job to be able to provide professional services. Self-efficacy is a form of self-confidence that a person has in his ability to carry out or complete tasks, achieve goals, and overcome obstacles and failures. Until this research was made, there had been no studies that tested using the Rasch model on self-efficacy scales in work contexts, especially among nurses in hospitals. Therefore this study aims to examine as well as test the development of self-efficacy instruments for nurses using the Rasch analysis model. The subjects in this study were 68 nurses who were actively working at hospital X. Based on the results of the Rasch model analysis carried out using the WINSTEP statistical processing program, 12 items (out of 24 items) met the item model fit level, with an alpha reliability coefficient moving from 0.92. Overall, it can be concluded that the items in this nurse self-efficacy instrument have valid and reliable psychometric attributes to be used in research
