Abstract
55 Australian university students completed the Fear of Academic Success Consequences Scale as well as separate measures of nine hypothesized predictors of fear of academic success, namely, age, sex, school and university academic performance, estimates of future academic success, independence from the views and opinions of others, academic motivation, and rated importance of doing well academically. All scale-predictor correlations were nonsignificant, except for age and external control. The results suggest the scale does not possess high construct validity among these students.
