Araştırma sistematik bir derleme olup araştırmanın amacı; sınav kaygısıyla başa çıkmada uygulanan bilinçli farkındalık temelli programların etkililiğini incelemek amacıyla yapılmış deneysel ve karma çalışmaların değerlendirilmesidir. Bu kapsamda YÖK TEZ, ULAKBİM, Google Akademik ve EBSCOhost veri tabanlarında 2000 (Ocak) -2018 (Nisan) yılları arasında yayımlanan İngilizce ve Türkçe makaleler ve tezler sistematik olarak taranmıştır. Taramada sınav kaygısı için bilinçli farkındalık temelli müdaheleler, stress azaltma temelli bilinçli farkındalık ve sınav kaygısı, bilinçli farkındalık temelli sınav kaygısı yönetimi, sınav kaygısına yönelik bilinçli farkındalık temelli bilişsel terapi, sınav kaygısına yönelik bilinçli farkındalık temelli terapi anahtar kelimeler olarak kullanılmıştır. Ölçütleri karşılamayan araştırmalar çalışma dışında tutulurken; ölçütleri karşılayan 14 makale bu çalışmada örneklem grupları, amaçları, yapıldığı ülkeler, kullanılan teknikler, ölçme yöntemleri ve bulgular açısından incelenmiş ve değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, araştırmaların genellikle üniversite öğrencileri çalışma grubu üzerinde yürütüldüğünü ve bilinçli farkındalık temelli programlarının farklı örneklem grupları üzerinde sınav kaygısı yaşayan bireylerin kaygısını azaltmada etkili olduğunu göstermiştir.
