Reducing Test Anxiety and Improving Test Performance e-Book

Reducing Test Anxiety and Improving Test Performance in America's Schools: Results from the TestEdge National Demonstration Study—by Raymond Trevor Bradley, Ph.D., Rollin McCraty, Ph.D., Mike Atkinson, Lourdes Arguelles, Ph.D., Robert A. Rees, Ph.D., and Dana Tomasino

This 372-page e-Book is a comprehensive report presenting the complete results from the TestEdge National Demonstration Study which was conducted by the Institute of HeartMath in collaboration with Claremont Graduate University. The study’s primary purpose was investigating the efficacy of the TestEdge and Resilient Educator programs in reducing stress and test anxiety and improving emotional well-being, quality of relationships and academic performance in public schools and students. Overall, the evidence from this rich combination of physiological, quantitative and qualitative data indicates that among other successes TestEdge produced substantial physiological, psychological, academic and social benefits for the participants.

There is good reason to believe the program produced substantial physiological, psychological, academic and social benefits for the participating students. It is our hope the results will have an impact on policies regarding the importance of integrating stress and emotional self-management education into school curricula for students of all ages. By introducing and sustaining appropriate programs and strategies, it should be possible to significantly reduce the stress and anxiety that impede student performance, undermine teacher–student relationships and cause physiological and emotional harm. Such programs have the promise of increasing the effectiveness of our educational system and, in the long term, boosting the academic standing of the United States in the international community.
