In today’s knowledge-based economy, outstanding academic performance is key for students to access higher education opportunities and a prerequisite for a wide range of career choices. As educational attainment and workplace requirements rise, the pressure students face in relation to school has been further amplified (Högberg, 2021). A survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare (2023) showed that approximately 80% of high school students in Taiwan aspire to obtain a university degree or higher, with schoolwork being the most troubling issue in their daily lives (45%). Disagreements between teenagers and parents mainly stem from academic and admission-related issues. Concurrently, 60% of students worry about poor academic performance, and 50% report that their mood for the entire day is affected by homework or exam results (Child Welfare League Foundation, 2023). The domestic surveys reflect that the majority of adolescents experience uncomfortable feelings during the learning process, indicating that this phenomenon is no longer an individual adaptation issue for students, but a pervasive concern among the adolescent population. Stress, anxiety, helplessness, and confusion have become inseparable companions to high school life. In addition to examining domestic data, the latest 2021–2022 Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (HBSC) survey by the World Health Organization (WHO, 2023) found that 15-year-olds have the poorest overall mental health, and as age increases, adolescents’ well-being declines while physical and mental distress rises. Over the past two decades, a growing proportion of students in most European countries and Canada have been noticeably affected by academic stress, with an increasing rate of distress (Löfstedt et al., 2020). Numerous studies have demonstrated the close association between academic stress and mental health, substance use, sleep, and physical health (Pascoe et al., 2020). Thus, an in-depth exploration of the impacts of academic stress and its protective factors is an issue that cannot be overlooked in the fields of education and public health. There is a wealth of research on academic stress and emotional distress. Many empirical studies have highlighted the correlation between stress and negative emotions such as anxiety and depression (e.g., Arsenio & Loria, 2014; Feiss et al., 2019; Santiago et al., 2017), focusing on how to buffer the physical and mental problems caused by stress. Social support, resilience, grit, self-efficacy, emotional regulation, and basic psychological needs have been found to be important process factors in this context (Çınar-Tanrıverdi & Karabacak-Çelik, 2023; Trevethan et al., 2022; Watson & Watson, 2016). However, few studies have carefully examined the relationship between academic stress and individuals’ experiences of various discrete emotions in
