A correlation (p < .05) was found between attitude, motivation, anxiety, and academic performance during the learning process in students of public universities in Peru, being the statistically significant correlation of direct mean level between academic performance and attitude (.445**) and between academic performance and motivation (.438**), for the variables academic performance and anxiety, a statistically significant correlation of low and inverse level (-.225**) was found.
