Two Types of Test-Anxious Students: Support for an Information Processing Model.

Naveh-Benjamin, Moshe; And Others

Journal of Educational Psychology, v79 n2 p131-36 Jun 1987

Two studies investigated an information processing model in explaining the poor academic performance of highly test-anxious students. The first measured the organization of course material by students in a nonevaluative situation; and the second differentiated types of highly test anxious students by their information processing skills.
