Individuals are prone to experiencing psychological stress.

it is a known fact that some people are more likely to feel stressed than others.

the state of mental health of university students is a vital indicator of the consequences of stress.

if a person cannot afford to pay for the necessary stress, her or his behavior will become unpredictable and cause further problems.

the failure of students to resolve their problems contributes to the development of emotional conflicts that affect their achievement motivation.

in order to reduce psychological stress and improve their achievement, the resarcher conducted a cognitive-behavioral therapy study.

CBT is a type of talking therapy that focuses on the relationship between the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of an individual.

it helps individuals identify their unhelpful thinking patterns and develop skills to address them.

in addition to being able to identify their own thoughts and behaviors, cbt also helps individuals develop strategies to manage their stress.

the study was conducted on 100 first two year university students.

the resarcher divided the group into two groups: the experimental and the control groups.

the results indicated that the experimental group exhibited higher achievement motivation levels than the control group.

and that the experimental group showed lower levels of psychological stress than the control group.
