Explanatory mixed -method approach was used in the present study. The procedure for data collection was field research via the application of questionnaire and tests. The designed test was given to 48 Iraqi male and female students with the age range of 25 -40 years from Persian language center of Tarbiat Modares University, with different language levels and in two forms of adaptive and linear computerized tests. According to positive upper and lower limits of average variance, the researcher came up to the conclusion that the average of anxiety component in linear computer test is more than the average 3.
