Data were collected using the classroom and school environment questionnaire (2002), the Epstein, Baldwin & Bishab family performance questionnaire (1983) and the Phillips academic anxiety questionnaire (1987). Multivariate Pearson and Regression correlation coefficients were used to analyze the data. Findings showed that between the factors related to the classroom environment and academic anxiety with r = -0.521 and significance coefficient of 0.001, between the factors related to school environment and academic anxiety with -0 = 155 and the significance coefficient of 0.035 And between family performance and academic anxiety with r = -0.581 and significance coefficient of 0.001. There is an inverse and significant relationship. Also, the findings of the regression equation showed that the factors within the classroom and family performance together can predict 0.432% of academic anxiety.
