Determining the relationship between anxiety levels and self-esteem among students

the issue of the relationship between self-esteem and anxiety in students is relevant, as these psychological characteristics affect the success of academic activities and establishing contacts with others. The higher the level of anxiety, the deeper the inner personal conflict, and the more prone one is to self-blame. The aim of the study is to theoretically and practically investigate the nature of the relationship between anxiety levels and self-esteem among students. The research was conducted at the Tolstoy University in Tula. The sample consisted of a group of 30 psychology and pedagogy students aged 19 to 21. The main method was identified as an empirical experiment. The following methods were applied: the personal anxiety manifestation scale (J. Taylor, adapted by T.A. Nemchin) and the self-esteem level determination questionnaire (S.V. Kovalev). The one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and Spearman's correlation coefficient were used for statistical analysis of the obtained data. The results of the study indicate that there is a strong positive relationship between anxiety and self-esteem among students. Studying the relationship between anxiety experienced by students and their self-esteem is important for identifying the factors influencing students' levels of anxiety and self-esteem, as well as for developing effective management strategies.
