Some may lead to unhealthy levels of stress which hold back students abilities to socialize and to achieve their academic goals. Being in a college is exciting but sometimes it can also be overwhelming. Within balacing the demands in school and at home, students find a way to cope with the stress. Thus they use as a coping mechanism for them to face those daily demands. This study examined the relationship between the level of perceived stress and the use of humor as a coping strategy.
