Abstract, College success is not only influenced by cognitive and psychomotor abilities, but also by its
affective capacity. Affective ability is not only seen from the attitude of students during the face-to-face
lecture process but also how their attitude or behavior is in responding to the burden and work
internshipassignments on campus. Work stress is a condition of tension that creates physical and
psychological imbalances, which affect one's emotions, thought processes, and conditions (Rivai, 2004).
Too much work stress can threaten a person's ability to deal with and adapt to his environment. In this
study, it will be revealed the relationship between work stress and student practice with the achievement
of the cumulative achievement index in study programs majoring in Family Welfare Education (PKK).
The purpose of this study is to find out 1). the students‘ level of stress in work internship in PKK majors,
2). the cumulative achievement index of students majoring in PKK, and 3). whether there is a relationship
between the stress on work internship of students in the PKK majors with the cumulative achievement
index achieved.
Keywords: work internship stress, achievement index, PKK majoring students, correlation, significance.

the report card as the final formulation of learning outcomes (Sumadi Suryabrata, 2001: 320).
Furthermore, Nana Sudjana (2004: 5) explains that learning outcomes are abilities students have
after they receive their learning experience. Whereas Purwanto (1992: 18) said that student
learning outcomes can be viewed from the cognitive aspects, namely students' abilities in
knowledge (memory), understanding and application (application), analysis, synthesis and
evaluation.
Learning outcomes are influenced by several factors, both originating from within the
individual and from outside the individual. Slameto (2000: 54) says there are several factors that
affect learning outcomes obtained by students, including: 1). internal factors, namely factors
that originate within the student, and are divided into three parts namely physical factors (health
