    abstract = {The study objective was to determinethe
impact of age on work stress among academic
administrators of universities in South-East Nigeria. This
is a survey study which consisted of 786 public
universities administrators of South-East Nigeria
(Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo State) in the study
area through purposive procedure. The Work Stress of
Academic Administrators Questionnaire (WSAAQ)”
structured on a four-point rating scale of Strongly Agreed
(SA) to Strongly Disagreed (SD) was used for data
collection. The Cronbach alpha reliability was 0.90.
Direct delivery of the questionnaire with five research
assistants was employed. For analysis of data, mean and
standard deviation were employed. The hypothesis was
tested at 0.05 probability level using Analysis of Variance
(ANOVA). Results showed that there is no significant
mean difference in the work stress of young and old
university administrators in South-East Nigeria. Thus,
South-East government should try to recruit young
administrators and lecturers to their various institutions
from time-time to ensure adequacy in job performance
and delivery in order to boost human service and
workstress-free in universities in South-East Nigeria.
Consequently, university administrators are urged to
embrace their work with good fate in order to shun work
stress.}
