The aim of the present work was to study @entity148 among school age students suffering from @entity565 . The study was conducted on a total number of 146 @entity748 preparatory school students, attending the @entity565 clinic in Sporting Students' Hospital in Alexandria Governorate. The study was performed during the period from June to September 1997. A matching control of 223 non- @entity748 students from the preparatory school in the East educational zone in Alexandria Governorate were also included in the study. The study was carried out through a cross-sectional approach. A structured self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data about, the general characteristics of the sample, interpersonal and inter-parental relationships, school performance and the attitude and behavior of mothers towards their @entity748 @entity1 . The Arabic version of State-Trait @entity148 Inventory (STAI) was used to identify @entity1 with @entity148 state. The present result revealed that 24.7% of the @entity748 students were anxious, with a higher preponderance among @entity1 than @entity1 (26.6%, 21.2%, respectively). Bad interpersonal and inter-parental relationships had increased the risk of occurrence of @entity148 state among @entity748 @entity1 . Also, poor scholastic achievement was more encountered among @entity748 who had @entity148 . The development of @entity565 education programs to increase parents', @entity1 's and teachers' awareness of @entity565 symptoms and @entity565 trigger events was recommended.
