摘要:This study was aimed to examine the relationship between self-compassion, mindfulness and test anxiety among Turkish adolescents. Data were collected from 646 high school students, by using the Test Anxiety Inventory (TAI), the Self- Compassion Scale (SCS), the Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) and the Personal Information Form. First, the grade level and gender effects on test anxiety were examined. Then, the predictive roles of these two variables on test anxiety together with self-compassion and mindfulness were investigated. Independent Samples t-test, One-Way ANOVA, and Multiple Linear Regression were run. Results revealed that females reported significantly higher test anxiety than males, and 9th graders reported significantly higher test anxiety than the 12th graders on TAI total and sub-scale (Worry and Emotionality) scores. When the predictive roles of each sub-dimension score of the SCS on the test anxiety scores were examined, over-identification and isolation significantly predicted all three TAI scores.
