The paper conclusion looks more like "exam anxiety has the same negative effect during mock exams as final exams" rather than "exam anxiety has no effect on exam results" (as per e.g. "Test anxiety did not predict exam performance beyond exam-preparation performance", page 5).

Am I reading it wrong, or does the paper title overgeneralize its findings?

thank you
