Resumen

Anxiety as a psychological phenomenon tends to influence different life scenarios of individuals, generating alterations in their performance. The identification of this and how to deal with it can become very important in the educational sector, especially in how it manifests itself before the presentation of exams and how students face it, which is why we sought to identify the levels of anxiety and the Coping styles of a group of psychology students before the exams of a private university in Barranquilla. Colombia. The COPING Strategies scale was applied for coping strategies and the AMAS-C scale for test anxiety. The methodology is quantitative, with a transversal descriptive level. A stratified random sampling of psychology students from II to X semester 2020-2 was carried out, for a sample of 133 selected students. The results show that the levels of anxiety before the exams were 33% clinically significant anxiety, 33% mild anxiety, 22% total anxiety and 22% presented levels of clinically significant extreme anxiety, with respect to coping styles 100%. of the sample uses the expression of coping difficulty (EAD). In conclusion, it can be shown that carrying out an activity such as exams tends to generate an emotional response in all students, in the same way, regardless of the degree of anxiety that may occur, in general, the main response of coping style will be the of expressing the difficulty towards others as a means of escape.
