Summary/Abstract: Anxiety is inevitable in everyday life and is an automatic human response to experiencing danger. Also, problems and symptoms related to anxiety are an integral part of maturation and represent adaptive responses that protect against dangerous situations and have a motivational effect. Anxiety becomes a problem for a person when it stops being motivating and protective. The aim of the paper is to examine the presence of axiosity in students of the upper grades of elementary school. The work was based on the assumption that anxiety is present in final grade students in different areas. The sample of respondents consisted of 120 final grade elementary school students in Tuzla Canton. The research was conducted in February 2023. The measuring instrument used in the research is the Children's Anxiety Scale by author Purić (1992; according to Zaić, 2005) and is intended for examining the anxiety of school-aged children. Data were processed using descriptive statistics methods. The results of the research indicate the presence of anxiety in three areas: exam, social and general anxiety in different intensity.
