Gender differences in test anxiety among South African university students.
Prior research has shown a sex difference in scores on test anxiety, with men having a lower mean score than women. The present study was undertaken to confirm such a difference among African university students, but the t ratio was nonsignificant for means of 28.4 for men and 28.0 for women (SDs of 5.3 and 5.0).
