        ( Nahshon Likki ),( Mary Ndahi ),( Sheriff Jen ),( Stephen Hamafyelto ) 한국체육학회 2015 국제스포츠과학 학술대회 Vol.2015 No.1

        Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine the impact of coping strategies on environmental stressors experienced by students of University of Maiduguri living off-campus. By rule, 100 and 400/500 level students are those entitled to hostel accommodation in the Federal Nigerian Universities with exceptions to private universities. In such circumstances most students preferred places with cheaper rent rates. Students in these residences face challenges of environmental stressors. Stress being a cumulative phenomenon, is known to build over time. These environmental stressors are inimical to students` ability to function well in their academic endeavors. Method: A descriptive survey was used to sample students living off-campus. Nine hundred and seven (N=907) students were sampled. Athletes, 294(32.4°)) and non-athletes, 613 (67.6%).The mean age was (24 ± 3.86). Male were 615(67.8%) and female were 292(32.2%). A 19 item checklist on environmental stressors .87 Cronbach`s alpha was used. A 10-item Orientation to Life Questionnaire .93 Cronbach`s alpha was used. Independent t-test was computed to compare the mean difference between athletes and non-athletes and the Multivariate analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) was computed with age of students as covariate. Results: The results revealed that there was significant difference between athletes and nonathletes on the coping strategy (SOC) (t = 13.237, df; 905; p<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed between male and female students in terms of their coping strategies (t=2.860, df; 905; p>0.06).Statistical significant difference was observed between athletes and non- athletes on environmental stressors with athletes being more tolerant to the stressors (t = -1.141, df = 905; p<0.05). The MANCOVA showed significant difference between athletes and non- athletes as age of the students was held as covariate. Conclusion: It was concluded that University of Maiduguri undergraduate students who lived off-campus do experience environmental stressors in their residence while attending to academic activities. Apparently, the athletes who have their accommodation off-campus are better disposed to the environmental stressor than non-athletes. There was no gender difference in terms of environmental stressors or coping strategies. It is therefore recommended among other things that the university should evolve sports activities that would foster large number of students` participation.
