Characteristics,Formation Factors and Coping Strategies of Test Anxiety——Review of Moshe Zeidner's Theory of Test Anxiety
Test anxiety refers to a series of cognitive,emotional and behavioral reactions that students are worried about possible negative test consequences or failures during the testing process.As a representative figure in the study of test anxiety,Zeidner explained the systematic theory of test anxiety under the guidance of pressure trading theory,emotional cognitive evaluation theory and caring theory. Test anxiety originates in the tests and evaluation situations,runs through the tests' process and integrates with the explicit and implicit elements.It is influenced by many factors,such as the test competition culture interwoven with time and space,key personnel in the learning process,task variables in the test atmosphere and self-cognitive evaluation.In order to effectively relieve students' test anxiety, it should create a benign competition culture for tests as the start,embed prevention knowledge into curriculum as the support,impel multiple and moderate test propositions as the guarantee,and rely on the implementation of caring behavior of others and positive self-cognitive evaluation to weaken and eliminate the negative impact of test anxiety on students' learning process and growth and development.
