Data set on work routine management among academic staff in selected Nigerian University: The eustress perspective.

ABSTRACT: Academics undergo stress, which negatively affects their performance and management does not seem to provide adequate organizational support for people suffering from occupational stress. This data captures eustress among university academic staff and coping strategies to improve performance. Previous studies on stress among academics focused on their experience of distress, with little attempt to explore eustress. particularly in the Nigerian context. A mixed method approach was adopted to elicit information from the sampled 444 respondents and twelve in-depth interviews were also conducted. Descriptive and inferential research methods were used for the analysis. The quantitative data were analyzed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM), while the qualitative data were subjected to manual thematic analysis.
