摘要
The study aims to examine the impact of optimism and exams' anxiety on high school students' self esteem. 200 students from four high schools from Bucharest, Romania participated in the study, 100 facing an upcoming national examination (class 12) and 100 with only their regular exams (class 10), 82 male and 118 female, aged 15 - 19 years (M = 16,78, SD = 1,281). Data were collected with three self-rating questionnaires assessing optimism, self esteem and anxiety. The research's results could be used by school counsellors in developing programs aiming to increase their ability to maintain constant their self-esteem even in uncertain and adverse conditions.
