This research aimed to study anxiety in master's and doctoral students in Accounting and to verify the effect exerted on it by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, by self-efficacy and by variables such as: gender, age, performance, among others. The sample consisted of 246 master's and 76 doctoral students from all master's and doctoral programs in Accounting Sciences in Brazil. The data collection instruments used were the Trait Anxiety Inventory, to determine the level of anxiety, the Perceived General Self-efficacy Scale to raise the level of self-efficacy and the Echelle Motivation en Education to determine the level of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and of demotivation. Data were analyzed through linear regression using the Stepwise Backward technique. The results revealed a predominance of anxiety in female students compared to male students. Regarding the primary objective of the work, it was concluded that anxiety is negative and significantly impacted by self-efficacy. Furthermore, it is positively and significantly impacted by extrinsic motivation by external control and demotivation. It was also concluded that the level of motivation to continue studying, being under 24 years of age, the type of postgraduate degree (whether master's or doctorate), receiving psychiatric/psychological support, receiving an academic scholarship, performance and gender are significant predictors for the analysis of anxiety.
