Abstract
Students who have not completed their study within the specified time limit indicated that they have psychological problems during doing the final task that trigger their anxiety. While the anxiety experienced by Students correlated with the frequency of self-reinforcement against them. This study aimed to determine the differences in the level of anxiety in terms of the frequency of self-reinforcement to Students who exceed the time limit. This study used quantitative methods to collect comparative data through the Taylor's Manifest Anxiety Scale instrument and Frequency of Self Reinforcement Questionnaire. The number of subjects were 123 students. The results showed that there were differences in anxiety levels significantly between students who have a high frequency of self-reinforcement tostudents with low frequency of self-reinforcement.

Summary
Yang dialami maka semakin rendah frekuensi self reinforcement yang diberikan. Penelitian Rehm &. Mengungkapkan bahwa frekuensi self reinforcement yang diberikan pada seseorang terhadap dirinya berkorelasi dengan adanya social anxietyyang dialami sebagai proyeksi dari pemikiran negatif mengenai diri sendiri dan lingkungannya, bahkan penelitian lain menyebutkan bahwa frekuensi self reinforcement dapat memprediksikan adanya depresi pada mahasiswa (Heiby, 1981, 1983b). Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa frekuensi self reinforcement dapat mengindikasikan adanya kecemasan yang dialami oleh seseorang. Sedangkan frekuensi self reinforcement yang diberikan pada diri seseorang dapat memprediksikan seberapa besar kecemasan yang dialami bahkan adanya depresi pada mahasiswa yang diakibatkan oleh kecemasan yang terlampau tinggi. Sehingga rumusan masalah dalam penelitian ini, yaitu bagaimana perbedaan kecemasan yang dialami mahasiswa semester lanjut berdasarkan frekuensi self reinforcement yang diberikan terhadap dirinya sendiri. Sedangkan tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui apakah ada perbedaan kecemasan (anxiety) ditinjau dari frekuensi self reinforcement pada mahasiswa semester lanjut. Ketakutan akan ketidakmampuan diri dan kehilangan kontrol, merasa bingung, sulit berkonsentrasi, dan selalu bersikap waspada terhadap segala sesuatu (Nevid et all, 2003)
