Anotace knihy

This study investigated the prevalence of test anxiety and locus of control orientation in§three groups of middle school students: Achieving Gifted (AG), Underachieving Gifted§(UAG), and Nongifted (NG) students. Although none of§the groups received extreme scores on either instrument, a 3 x 2 MANOVA indicated§significant differences between the groups by gender and achievement classification (AG,§UAG, and NG). Underachieving gifted students were more externally oriented than§achieving gifted students. There was also a significant difference in the locus of control§orientation between achieving gifted and nongifted students; nongifted students were§more externally controlled than achieving gifted students. In regards to underachievers,§males were more externally controlled than females. Regarding test anxiety, females§consistently reported higher levels of anxiety than males. Findings suggest the need for§scho ol interventions to reduce test anxiety among females and to assist students in developing the thought processes that give them a sense of control over the events in their life, in particular, their academic performance.
