Description
Public Speaking Anxiety (PSA) is an enduring challenge in education and employment. This professional doctorate investigated PSA in higher education via two connected projects. Project 1 utilised an instrumental case study to explore how PSA was recognised and experienced in an undergraduate university oral communication unit. Applying critical reflective practice, this study concluded that PSA is complex, prevalent, individual and unstable. Leveraging this understanding, Project 2 presents a new support framework and offers practical guidance for both educators and students. This framework promotes self-regulation, self-efficacy and self-reflection to develop sustainable speaking practices while at university and beyond.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
