Functions are determined by doshas, demonstrating their function in Prakruti and its influence on working memory and cognition. Perception and memory are components of cognition. Mental equilibrium depends on emotional regulation, such as controlling fear (Bhaya). Objectives: Understanding test anxiety in Ayurvedic students and connecting it to their physical constitution (Prakruti) are the goals of this study. Additionally, it aims to clarify how anxious male and female students are. Understanding anxiety levels in Ayurvedic students, comparing the severity of test anxiety in male and female students, and evaluating students’ Prakruti and exam anxiety susceptibility were the primary goals of the study. Methodology: To find out how common test anxiety is, a quantitative study is conducted among first, second, and third-year professional students at an Ayurvedic college in Bengaluru. Out of the 87 students selected, 33 were male and 54 were female. The Prakruti Assessment questionnaire, created by Sri Sri College of Ayurvedic Science and Research in Bengaluru, was utilized in this investigation after the Hamilton-A anxiety scale.Results: According to the results, both men and women took the exam, however women were more impacted than men. Students with Kapha Pitta Prakruti were more anxious about exams than those with Prakruti. Conclusion: There is strong evidence that anxiety and Prakriti are related. For students’ mental and physical well-being, a stress-free learning environment is essential. How to cite this article: Kumar H P, Supriya E.
