Amount of Manifested Test Anxiety in the Heterogeneous Classroom.

Gjesme, Torgrim

Journal of Psychology, v110 n2 p171-89 Mar 1982

The influence of achievement motives, future time orientation (FTO), level of ability (IQ), sex of subjects, and perceived intrinsic instrumentality of school activity were considered in relation to manifested test anxiety at school. Subjects were 507 sixth graders. Pupils' achievement motives and their future time orientation were found to be the most important factors for test anxiety. (Author/MP)
