Abstract: School stress is present at many educational levels and can represent a problem when achieving effective academic self-efficacy in young people. This study analyzed school stress to verify its possible relationship with academic self-efficacy in adolescent students. A sample of 245 students was used, to whom the academic self-efficacy scale and the systemic cognitive inventory (SISCO) were applied to determine the possible relationship between these variables. The main findings revealed that school stress has a weak positive relationship with academic stress, because, to achieve satisfactory results in academic performance, there must be appropriate academic self-efficacy, which merits effort and commitment on the part of the student, which causes stressful situations, inevitable for the achievement of objectives.
