ABSTRACT
Thirty college students completed questionnaires and
tests that measure test anxiety, self-concept and academic competency. It was
hypothesized that test anxiety will result in negative self-concept and will
lower college students’ self-perceived academic competency. The results showed
that self-concept negatively affected students’ self-perceived academic
competency. It was also found that high self-perceived academic competency was
positively correlated with GPA (grade point average, a measure of
performance). This study shows self-concept competency and academic
performance. This will enable professionals to look at another variable that
affects academic performance in detail.
