 To determine the relationship between anxiety and psychosocial functioning in college students?

 Attending college related to increased stress: ◦ Dorm life ◦ Roommates ◦ Social pressure ◦ Pressure to drink or try drugs ◦ Lack of social support ◦ High academic demands  Stress can result in significant anxiety.

 Anxiety: ◦ Exists as a persistent feeling of discomfort ◦ Can cause or become caused by stress  Or the lack of ability to cope with an event  e.g., attending college Veeraraghavan & Singh, 2002

 Anxiety can become overwhelming for some and impair their functioning.  Anxiety can prove both positive and negative. ◦ Where excessively high or low anxiety will be related to decreased performance. Kessler, Berglund, Demler, Jin, Merikangas, & Walters, 2005 Veeraraghavan & Singh, 2002

 Severe anxiety can even cause a person to develop a distorted perception and can impair learning, attention, concentration, and memory.  Therefore, understanding how anxiety affects college students proves a vital area for research. Veeraraghavan & Singh, 2002

 College students with increased anxiety will have decreased psychosocial functioning.  In some instances, the relationship will be similar to an inverted U. ◦ Where excessively high or low anxiety will be related to decreased performance.

 Cross-sectional (single time point) survey of undergraduate students at UNT.  Collected a variety of measures including: ◦ State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) ◦ Grade Point Average (GPA) ◦ Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire (Q-LES-Q) ◦ Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) ◦ BriefCOPE ◦ Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) ◦ Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptoms (QIDS) ◦ Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) ◦ Marijuana Problem Scale (MPS)

 UNT undergraduate students between the ages of 18 and 26 (N =1070 ).

 Polynomial regressions: ◦ Independent Variable:  Trait anxiety levels (STAI) ◦ Dependent Variables:  GPA, Q-LES-Q, MSPSS, BriefCOPE, PSS, QIDS, AUDIT, and MPS  Controlled for experiment wise error with Bonferroni correction. ◦ i.e., p value must have been less than.01.

 Decreased: ◦ Q-LES-Q (R 2 =.43, p =.000) ◦ MSPSS  Family (R 2 =.11, p =.000)  Friends (R 2 =.11, p =.000)  Significant Others(R 2 =.08, p =.000) ◦ Brief COPE (R 2 =.04, p =.000) ◦ GPA (R 2 =.01, p =.022)

 Increased: ◦ PSS (R 2 =.55, p =.000) ◦ QIDS (R 2 =.44, p =.000) ◦ AUDIT (R 2 =.01, p =.036) ◦ MPS (R 2 =.02, p =.000)
