Test AnxietyAbstract Test anxiety is a prevalent psychological issue among higher-education students,particularly those seeking degrees in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics) [1]. Test anxiety is an adverse emotional reaction when faced with a testingcircumstance or comparable evaluative atmosphere. Numerous studies on the impact of testanxiety on STEM students' academic performance have been undertaken. Understanding thecomplex link between test anxiety and academic achievement is critical for developing evidence-based solutions to help students succeed in STEM fields. Despite substantial research on collegestudents' test anxiety, there are major gaps in the literature, particularly in the context ofengineering
