LA ANSIEDAD Y SU RELACIÓN EN EL RENDIMIENTO ACADÉMICO DE LOS ESTUDIANTES DE LA CARRERA DE PSICOLOGÍA DE LA UNIVERSIDAD TÉCNICA DE MANABÍ

Abstract

The research was based on the study of anxiety and its relationship with academic performance in 163 psychology students through the revision of the grades registered in the academic management system (sga), the application of the scale of hamilton's anxiety and a survey that allowed to identify factors of the classroom climate. the methodology is descriptive, quali-quantitative, correlational and statistical. the results denote a significant relationship between the variables, according to the pearson coefficient p = 0.777 with a level of bilateral significance less than 0.05. Anxiety is perceived in all students with good academic performance, but no clear evidence is established that demonstrates that anxiety affects academic success or failure; likewise, the classroom climate was rated as very good and does not interfere with the students' performance. these data allow the emergence of new research that will determine what other factors interfere in academic performance.
