Abstract

Background & Objective: EXAM ANXIETY is a significant problem among university students and can be accompanied by a decline in performance and severe psychological problems. This study was designed to investigate EXAM ANXIETY levels among DENTAL STUDENTS of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, Iran, in 2013.Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on DENTAL STUDENTS of Kerman University of Medical Sciences. The participants were selected using census method. The data collection tool was a questionnaire consisting of the 20-item standard EXAM ANXIETY Questionnaire (Spielberger), demographic characteristics, causes of anxiety, methods of decreasing EXAM ANXIETY, and exam method. Data were analyzed using SPSS software, and linear regression and Student's t-test.Results: Of the participants, 56.57% were men, their mean age was 22.7±2.18, and 37.71% lived with their parents. The mean score of the EXAM ANXIETY questionnaire was 47.29±10.57, the maximum score being 80. The first activity during leisure time was exercising (30%) and fear of failure was the first cause of EXAM ANXIETY. Theoretical final exams were the cause of the EXAM ANXIETY in 54.90% of participants. Seeing friends was the most common method of decreasing anxiety. There was no significant correlation between mean EXAM ANXIETY score and sex, age, academic year, marriage status, and academic performance. A significant correlation was observed between area of residence and mean EXAM ANXIETY score.Conclusion: Based on our findings, DENTAL STUDENTS had varying degrees of EXAM ANXIETY. Thus, we recommend the training of EXAM ANXIETY reduction methods during the course of the term by professionals.
