本研究考察了不同学生群体的焦虑与5个预测变量之间的关系：种族（高加索人、夏威夷原住民/部分夏威夷人、日本人、其他）、性别、年级（9 - 12年级）、主要工资收入者的教育水平和状态-特质焦虑量表（STAI; CD Spielberger, RL Gorsuch, & RE Lushene, 1970）。夏威夷学生的焦虑水平明显高于日本学生；然而，当性别、年级水平和主要工资收入者的教育程度在统计上保持不变时，种族并不是一个显著的预测因子。种族和STAI因子评分之间的相互作用表明白种人的非典型模式。女生得分显著高于男生，主要工薪族的受教育程度预测焦虑程度。一般来说，当种族和年级水平保持不变时，这两种关联仍然显著。性别和STAI因素得分之间的相互作用表明，在积极（相对于消极）措辞的状态项目和消极（相对于积极）措辞的特质项目上，男女学生之间的差异相对较大。总体而言，研究结果表明，焦虑水平的明显种族差异可能是由于与其他社会人口变量相关的因果变量。因子得分的形式积极与消极的措词项目应被视为一个重要的变量；仅使用全球的综合焦虑指数作为焦虑的衡量标准，将掩盖不同的影响因素得分。需要进一步的研究来确定这些发现对其他群体的普遍性，并提供关于可能占较大方差百分比的直接因果变量的知识。
This study examined the association between anxiety and 5 predictor variables: ethnicity (Caucasian, Native Hawaiian/part Hawaiian, Japanese, other), gender, grade level (9–12th), main wage earners’ educational level, and State–Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI; CD Spielberger, RL Gorsuch, & RE Lushene, 1970) factors for a diverse group of students. Hawaiian students were found to have significantly higher levels of anxiety than Japanese students; however, ethnicity was not a significant predictor when gender, grade level, and main wage earners’ education were statistically held constant. An interaction between ethnicity and STAI factor scores indicated an atypical pattern for Caucasians. Female students scored significantly higher than male students, and main wage earners’ education predicted amount of anxiety. In general, these 2 associations remained significant when ethnicity and grade level were held constant. An interaction between gender and STAI factor scores indicated that the difference between female and male students was relatively larger for positively (as opposed to negatively) worded State items and for negatively (as opposed to positively) worded Trait items. Overall, the findings suggested that apparent ethnic differences in anxiety levels may be due to causal variables related to other sociodemographic variables. Factor scores in the form of positively versus negatively worded items should be considered an important variable; using only a global STAI composite as a measure of anxiety will mask the differential effects of the STAI factor scores. Further research is needed to determine the generalizability of these findings to other groups and to provide knowledge on direct causal variables that may account for a greater percentage of variance.
