Research Methods Step 1 Develop and verify the quality of components and indicators. and create an academic stress test of graduate students. Step 2: Checking the quality of the measure. In terms of content accuracy classification power Confidence and the structural validity of the measurement model. Step 3 is the development of the national norms of the measurement model.

Classified between 0.334 – 0.823 and 2 confidence levels were 0.951 and 0.921 respectively. By analyzing the second corroborative component, it was found that the academic stress model of graduate students was consistent with the empirical data. with statistical test values Chi-square = 23.660, p-value = 0.129, CFI = 0.996, TLI = 0.992, RMSEA = 0.040, SRMR = 0.028 3) The national norm of the Academic Stress Scale of Graduate Students = 61.07, SD = 19.17 with a percentile rank of 1.3-100.0 and a normalized T-score of 28 – 89.
