The present study examined the prediction model of anxiety test based on Imposter and intolerance of uncertainty with the mediating role of academic resilience in students. The statistical population of this research included all secondary school female students of non-profit schools in districts 1, 3 and 8 of Tabriz city who were studying in the academic year of 2023-2024. The research sample included 150 of these students who were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling. The sample members responded to the test anxiety questionnaires of Friedman and Bandaz-Jacob (1997), imposter syndrome (CIPS) questionnaire of Clance & Imes (1978), Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale(IUS) by Freeston et al. (1994) and academic resilience questionnaires of Samuels (2004). The research model was analyzed using SmartPLS3 structural equation software. The results of the research confirmed the fit of the model with the data and showed that anxiety test is prediction based on imposter and intolerance of uncertainty with the mediating role of academic resilience in the form of a model. Imposter and intolerance of uncertainty were the predictors of anxiety test through academic resilience both directly and indirectly.
