Abstract:
This study is aimed to reveal the nature of the relationship between psychological resilience and test anxiety among students of the qualifying secondary education phase (baccalaureate) in the Moroccan context, and to uncover the differences in terms of test anxiety according to gender and academic specialization variables. The sample consisted of 250 participants from first- and secondyear baccalaureate students, with an average age of 17.8 years. Two measurement scales were used, namely Psychological Resilience Scale (Acceptance and Action Questionnaire; Bond et al., 2011) and Sarason's Test Anxiety Scale for children (AlShoubaki, 1991). The study showed that there was significant negative correlation between test anxiety and psychological resilience. The results have also revealed the presence of significant differences in the test anxiety across gender and its absence for the academic specialization variable
