Araştırmanın evrenini 2012-2013 eğitim-öğretim yılında Düzce il merkezine bağlı liselerin son sınıfında okuyan kız öğrenciler (n=833), örneklemini ise meslek liseleri dışındaki liselerin son sınıfında okuyan, çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden kız öğrenciler (n=502) oluşturmuştur. Veri toplamada kızların genel özelliklerini sorgulayan anket formu, Günlük Menstruel Semptom Değerlendirme Ölçeği ve Sınav Kaygısı Envanteri kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, üniversite sınavına hazırlanan kız öğrencilerin çok büyük bir çoğunluğunun adet sancısı yaşadığı, sınav kaygılarının yüksek olduğu, üniversite sınavının kız öğrencilerde stres yarattığı, üniversite sınavını kazanmayı her şeyden daha önemli olarak anlamlandıran kız öğrencilerin daha fazla adet dönemi değişiklikleri yaşadığı ve sınav kaygısı arttıkça adet dönemi şikayetlerinin de arttığı bulunmuştur.
