Objective: The current investigation sought to forecast examination-related anxiety through the lenses of perfectionism and academic self-regulation within the cohort of junior high school scholars located in Sirjan.
Methods: The methodological framework employed in this inquiry was descriptive correlational in nature. The statistical demographic pertinent to this research encompassed all junior high school students in Sirjan during the academic year 2024, from which a sample was derived utilizing convenience sampling techniques. The instruments utilized for data collection comprised the 23-item questionnaire developed by Friedman et al. (1997), the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS), and the Magno Academic Self-Regulation Questionnaire (2011). To scrutinize the research hypothesis, multiple regression analysis was conducted.
Results: The outcomes of the statistical analysis indicated that both perfectionism and academic self-regulation demonstrated a significant ability (P<0.05) to predict levels of test anxiety.
Conclusions: Consequently, it can be posited that junior high school students may mitigate their examination anxiety through the implementation of self-regulation strategies and by modulating their perfectionistic tendencies.
