Analysis of Students' Academic Anxiety Through Personality Prediction in Counseling Practice

摘要

Many factors are related to students' academic anxiety when learning in class. This research is based on the phenomenon of some students who have difficulty and anxiety in counseling practice classes. The focus of this study is to predict students' academic anxiety based on their personality traits. Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) and Academic Test Anxiety (ATA) was administered to 103 counselors-in-training and analyzed using multiple regression. The results showed that only Extraversion (β = -0.21, p <0.05) and Emotional Stability (β = -0.33, p <0.01) were negative and significant predictors of student academic anxiety when counseling practice. This findings have implications to understanding personalities that are important for supporting professional development counselors.
