Fingers tapping, hearts pounding, sweat on the brow, and heads bowed in prayer are common manifestations of students waiting to take an exam. The fear of failure is the basis of test anxiety (Anxiety and Depression Association, 2015). Pet therapy may reduce test anxiety in pre-licensure nursing students.
