Method evidence record

Westside Test Anxiety Scale

The Westside Test Anxiety Scale (WTAS) is a 10-item self-report questionnaire measuring the intensity of anxiety and worry experienced before, during, and after academic tests. Developed by Ralph Driscoll and validated in 2007, the WTAS assesses the cognitive (worry, negative self-talk) and somatic (tension, trembling, nausea) dimensions of test anxiety. It is widely used in educational psychology, academic counseling, and cognitive-behavioral research to identify students at risk for test anxiety and to monitor intervention effectiveness.
