Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Anxiety is something we all experience from time to time. Most people can relate to feeling tense, uncertain and, perhaps, fearful at the thought of sitting an exam, going into hospital, attending an interview or starting a new job. Students may worry about feeling uncomfortable, appearing foolish or how successful they will be. In turn, these worries can affect students sleep, appetite and ability to concentrate. If everything goes well, the anxiety will go away. This type of short term anxiety can be useful. Feeling nervous before an exam can make us feel more alert, and enhance our performance. The main aim of the study was to assess and compare the level of anxiety among unsuccessful students before and after supplementary examination. The non experimental research approach was adopted for the study with descriptive and comparative design. 115 students were selected by using convenience sampling technique. The tool developed and used for data collection were structured questionnaire. Paper pencil technique was used to collect data. The data obtained were analyzed by using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Result revealed that the mean percentage of anxiety scores of unsuccessful students before supplementary examination 39.84 was significantly higher than mean anxiety score after supplementary examination 29.21 as assessed by State Trait Anxiety Inventory. The mean percentage of anxiety score of unsuccessful students before supplementary examination 13.46 was significantly higher than mean anxiety score of after supplementary examination 4.84 as assessed by Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale.
