Student Factors Affecting Performance Anxiety

Abstract

Performance anxiety among university students has a serious impact on their artistic development. Performances are usually conducted in the form of examinations, competitions, and performances, which put higher demands on performers, but "performance anxiety" is a common phenomenon, which is encountered by amateurs, students at professional colleges and universities, as well as mature artists. College students may suffer from insomnia, anxiety, fear, and loss of appetite before going on stage. Appropriate performance anxiety helps to play the music, while excessive performance anxiety may cause stage fright, nervousness, blankness, stiffness, etc., and may even lead to the fear of performance and the idea of jumping ship. Performance anxiety is a widespread phenomenon among people engaged in performing arts activities, which has a great impact on people's learning, performance effect and quality, and an in-depth analysis of its causes and influencing factors can help to alleviate this situation and carry out related academic research.
