description Este estudio de caso buscó determinar la forma en que diferentes actores perciben el impacto de los marcadores de ansiedad en el desempeño de losestudiantes de inglés en exámenes orales. La muestra incluyó 17 estudiantes, dos maestros y siete observadores externos de un programa de Licenciatura en inglés en Colombia. La recolección de datos incluyó observaciones estructuradas durante las presentaciones y entrevistas semiestructuradas a profesores y estudiantes. Los resultados mostraron que los presentadores se enfocaron en evitar los marcadores notorios de ansiedad, pero, para los observadores, estos no perjudicaron la calidad del discurso tanto como los marcadores intermitentes y sostenidos. Además, aunque la ansiedad afectó el rendimiento oral de los estudiantes, los maestros la excluyeron al evaluar su habilidad lingüística. Se invita a maestros y estudiantes a reflexionar sobre el impacto real de la ansiedad al hablar en público bajo circunstancias evaluativas, particularmente en contextos distintos al aula.

The group of participants was made up of 17 students, two teachers, and seven external observers from an undergraduate English teaching program in Colombia. The data collection process involved structured observations during students’ presentations and semi-structured interviews to both teachers and students. The results showed that presenters focused on avoiding notorious anxiety markers, but, from the observers’ point of view, these did not affect speech quality as much as intermittent and sustained markers did. Moreover, although anxiety affected students’ oral performance, teachers filtered it out when grading students’ language ability. Teachers and students are therefore invited to reflect upon anxiety’s actual impact on public speaking in test situations, particularly in contexts other than the classroom.Universidad de Caldas2021-07-01T00:00:00Z2025-10-08T21:40:23Z2021-07-01T00:00:00Z2025-10-08T21:40:23Z2021-07-01Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Textinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleJournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1application/pdf1900-9895https://repositorio.ucaldas.edu.co/handle/ucaldas/2472310.17151/rlee.2021.17.2.82500-5324https://doi.org/10.17151/rlee.2021.17.2.8https://revistasojs.ucaldas.edu.co/index.php/latinoamericana/article/view/6394eng167214317Latinoamericana de Estudios EducativosAbad, J.
