Abstract:
This study established the most meaningful causal model for explaining the influenceofundergraduate students’ personality and self-concept on their test-anxiety towardsmeasurement and evaluation course. We adopted correlation research design in conductingthe study. The participants consist of 150 final year undergraduate students in the FacultyofEducation drawn using multistage sampling procedure. The instruments titled: Students’Personality Trait Questionnaire (SPTQ); Students’ Self-Concept Questionnaire (SCQ), andStudents Test-Anxiety Questionnaire (STAQ) were used for data collection. Datawereanalyzed using SEM-PLS applying the WarpPls software. Results generated a meaningful causal model for explaining the influence of undergraduate students’ personalityandself-concept on their test anxiety towards measurement and evaluation course. Themeasurement model showed a high level of validity and reliability. Results further showedthat 12 paths had a significant direct influence on the endogenous variables in the model. Most indirect paths showed no significant influence on the endogenous variables. It wasrecommended that university students form positive personality traits and self-concept toreduce their test-anxiety level.
