Abstract
We analyze the PISA 2015 data for Italy using an M-quantile multilevel
approach. This papers offers a complete overview of the relationship
between test anxiety and school performance by studying how anxiety
affects the performance of students along the overall conditional
distribution of mathematics, literature and science scores.
