Achievement Anxiety Test: Dimensionality and Utility.
Watson, Jane M.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v80 n4 p585-91 Dec 1988
The Achievement Anxiety Test's dimensionality was assessed using data from 378 university students. Analyses suggest the viability of a unidimensional construct, whose ability to provide extreme subject groups showing differences on other characteristics of academic achievement was assessed. Such a scale has potential for separating debilitating/facilitating test anxiety aspects. (SLD)
