Abstract

We want to reflect the predictors of Fear and Academic Achievement (AA) of teenagers from 12 to 18 in Ceuta. We focused on 557 participants that reflect multicultural features; 45.8% are boys, 54.2% girls; 64.5% are Muslims and 35.5% Christians. The techniques used in this survey are FSSC-II (Ascensio et al., 2012), as well as the children’s grades. The results show midlow levels on Fear and medium in Achievement. The predictors of Fear are Gender and Customs/Religion. The predictors of AA are Socioeconomic and cultural and Customs/Religion. Only AA has influence over Fear´s factors,working as a predictor.
