Abstract

   The purpose of this research was to clarify the stress and mood / emotional fluctuation accompanying the AT certification examinations, and to examine the necessity of providing psychological support. Subjects were 8 people in the fourth grade belonging to university A who took the AT certification examinations in 2017. Using Salivary α-Amylase Activity (sAA) as a stress marker, samples were taken over 3 times; "10 days before the examination", "the morning of the examination day", and "the day of the examination day". Also, in order to evaluate mood / emotion, the Japanese version Short-form of POMS (POMS) was conducted "10 days before the examination" and "the night before the examination". As a result of comparing the results of three sAA, the result of "the morning of the examination day" was significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of "the day of the examination day", and no significant difference was observed in other cases. Regarding the results of POMS, no significant difference was found in all items when compared twice, but tension and anxiety "10 days before the examination" required caution. In other words, it was suggested that not only educational support but also psychological support is necessary for those who refrain from taking AT certification examinations.
