“…The literature points to numerous interrelated variables in the academic training process at the stricto sensu level that can generate feelings of anxiety and lack of control, with psychological distress (Faro, 2013b ; Farrer et al, 2016 ; Mendes & Iora, 2014 ). Some of these were also cited by the students in this study, such as running the research project, excess hours of study, poor academic performance evaluations, relationship with advisor, reconciling with one’s personal life, demand for productivity, deadlines, and institutional problems (Galvan et al, 2015 ; Graner & Cerqueira, 2019 ; Hoffmann et al, 2018 ; Santos et al, 2015 ).…”

“…In recent decades, there has been an increase in studies on the constructs that are related to subjective (Diener, 1984;Diener et al, 2018;Jovanović, 2015) and psychological (Disabato et al, 2016;Ryff, 1989) individual well-being (Sonnentag, 2015), especially in those contexts with a strong presence of stressors such as academic education (Klainin-Yobas et al, 2016;Schmidt & Hansson, 2018;Smith & Yang, 2017). According to Faro (2013a), graduate school is a complex reality that requires various adjustments, from career planning to facing daily challenges in the exercise of this work activity, and recent studies point to an increase in psychological distress among graduate students (Farrer et al, 2016;Marais et al, 2018;Mendes & Iora, 2014). The relationship of the students with their advisors, the few resources available, the work overload, the arduous learning of scientific writing, and the preparation and development of the research project proves to be contributing factors to this distress (Faro, 2013a;Galvan et al, 2015;Santos et al, 2015).…”

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Recent studies point to an increase in psychological distress among graduate students. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of mindfulness practices on emotion regulation, on the perception of stress, and on the psychological well-being of graduate students. Forty-five (45) graduate students participated in the study, divided into an intervention and a control group. Questionnaires were applied for self-assessment of mindfulness, perceived stress, and psychological well-being, in addition to qualitative interviews in the pre- and post-timeframes of a mindfulness-based intervention. Quantitative data were analyzed using ANOVAs for repeated measures, while the interviews were analyzed using the thematic content analysis technique. The results indicated increases in the levels of mindfulness and psychological well-being, and a reduction in perceived stress in the intervention group, post-intervention. The interviews indicated the presence of ambivalent emotions in relation to graduate studies and the development of new strategies to cope with the stress in this work context. The main contribution of the study was to present empirical evidence of the effectiveness of mindfulness practices in the graduate-level education context, allowing students to become more capable of dealing with the challenges of an academic career.

Objectives: to understand the pleasure-suffering duality experienced by students in stricto sensu Graduate Program in Nursing. Methods: qualitative, integrated single-case study based on the Psychodynamics of Work. The setting was the stricto sensu Graduate Program in Nursing in Brazil. Two Graduate Programs were chosen. Data collection took place between May 2017 and April 2018, with 23 students, through interviews guided by semi-structured script and Documentary Analysis. Content Analysis was carried out. Results: two analysis units emerged: Situations generating pleasure: bridges built by the Graduate Program and Situations generating suffering: walls of the Graduate Program. They were discussed in two dimensions -organizational and socio-professional relations. Final considerations: the results can contribute to the planning of actions capable of potentiating the creation of "bridges" that lead to reach of pleasure in the Graduate Program. It impels the confrontation of suffering-generating situations for the student.

The aim of this study was to analyze levels of fatigue and resilience of Brazilian graduate students during the COVID-19 pandemic and to determine whether there is an association between fatigue and resilience and sociodemographic and academic factors. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, and it was discovered that the variables associated with higher levels of resilience were age; having children; being retired; receiving income above five minimum wages; having had greater problems in other phases of the research schedule; coming from private universities; being from the north of Brazil; studying the area of Health; and having their research schedule unaffected during the pandemic. On the other hand, lack of resilience was associated with not having children; being less well-off financially; being younger; being a woman; studying in a public university; and having to postpone part of the research during the pandemic. The conclusion of the study indicated the need for graduate programs to design strategies to deal with fatigue and promote resilience in Master’s and PhD students.
