摘要：The objective of this study is to examine the test anxiety levels of the high school students in terms of various variables. The study was conducted in a screening model from descriptive research methods. The data is collected from 734 students, who are in the 11th grade of five different high schools in 2016-2017 education year in İstanbul province. The research data was collected by the "Test Anxiety Inventory" developed by Spielberg and adapted by Öner and "Personal Information Form" developed by the researchers. Initially, data was tested whether the assumptions are met or not during the analysis. Then, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), independent t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze the anxiety levels of the students according to various variables. Results shows that there were statistically significant differences in the test anxieties of the students according to the sex; the female students were more worried in both the affective and delusional sub-dimensions of the inventory than the male students. It was also found that students who are satisfied with their classes or schools have lower levels of anxiety than others. In addition, students who felt self-anxious about the university entrance exam had higher anxiety levels compared to other students, and students, who believed that they would be successful had lower level of anxiety than others. Lastly, according to results, number of siblings, siblings, private tutoring, and having a separate room to study did not affect the test anxiety level of students.
