Brief Summary:
This study proposes to compare the effectiveness of an acceptance-based intervention and a cognitive control-based intervention for coping with test anxiety in nursing students during the HESI Health Education Systems Inc examination
Subjects will be randomized to receive either the CT or the ACT condition In both conditions subjects will receive an education on test anxiety to inform them about what test anxiety is and why it occurs Then the different conditions will receive the respective treatment of either CT or ACT The study is considered minimum risk because the nursing students will only be exposed to an amount of anxiety that is typical of their testing experience Both conditions will meet three times with each session lasting approximately one and a half hours The purpose of the treatment is to provide subjects with tools to help them cope with their test anxiety
