Summary: | This study investigates the relationship between study habits, achievement goals, and academic self-efficacy with high school students test anxiety. This is a descriptive-analytic correlational study. The statistical population included all high school students in Kashan during the academic year 99-98 (over 8000). For the purpose of sampling, 449 persons (224 males and 225 females) were selected by random sampling. Research instruments included test anxiety questionnaires (Abolghasemi et al., 1996), study habits (Palsani & Sharma, 1982), achievement goals (Elliott & McGregor, 2001), and academic self-efficacy (Jinks & Morgan, 1999). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (average, standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation and stepwise regression) by SPSS-20 software. The results showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between test anxiety and study habits (p <0.01), achievement goals (p <0.01) and students academic self-efficacy (p <0.01).School counselors and education specialists should pay more attention to study habits, development goals, and self-efficacy of students in order to reduce anxiety of students and try to reduce anxiety through effective planning based on students’ abilities. |
