Abstract

Anxiety during thesis writing is a prevalent issue among senior students, driven by academic pressures and concerns about research outcomes. Factors such as self-compassion and religiosity may assist students in managing this anxiety. This study investigates the influence of self-compassion and religiosity on thesis-related anxiety among senior students at the Faculty of Psychology and Education, Muhammadiyah University of Sidoarjo. Utilizing a quantitative correlational approach, the research involved 260 senior students selected through purposive sampling. A validated scale measured self-compassion, religiosity, and thesis writing anxiety. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. Findings suggest that both religiosity and self-compassion significantly aid senior students in coping with the academic pressures associated with the thesis writing process.
