Answer: psychologically ....it can be understood as a manifestation of what psychology calls "projection" or "transferrence". This process is unconscious so, none of the subject is aware of it. It is a natural process, process that is typical for primordial psyche. It means that "I" (ego) cannot control the process, i.e. it is compulsive.

Explanation: Projection/transferrence means that psychic contents that ego cannot bear are automatically projected on internal or external object ...projection is intra-psychic process and the subject/s who projects get literally isolated from reality. Majorities are psychologicaly in advantageous position, people who belong to majority are psychologically more protected because they are "included". Of course if you belong to majority (for ex. in terms of colour of skin) in other respect you can belong to minority (homosexual). So things are not so easy.

This study was, therefore, an attempt to find out the nature of students' experiences by finding out aspects (conditions and or events) of the university they assessed as stressful especially during their early days in the university. A 40-item questionnaire, with statements clustered into five categories of stress-induced factors of university, was used to collect relevant data. The subjects responded to the questionnaire in terms of their assessment of their experiences of the different aspects of the university presented to them on the questionnaire. The results revealed that factors associated with Financial Difficulties, Demands of the University Environment and the University Administrative Process (in that descending order) were assessed as stressful. While data analysis revealed significant sex differences in the assessment of stressful experiences with various aspects of the university, no significant differences were found on the basis of subjects' age groups and institutional affiliations.
