A further investigation of the relationship between manifest anxiety and intelligence

"Two groups of college students were given the Wechsler-Bellevue Intelligence Test and the Taylor Anxiety Scale. Group A was composed of 36 students in an undergraduate psychology class. Group B was made up of 15 students with lower IQ scores who were having academic difficulty. Significant negative correlations between A -scale scores and several Wechsler subtests were reported for Group A, and when Group B was combined with Group A the A -scale scores of the combined groups showed a significant negative correlation with Total IQ, Verbal IQ and a large number of subtests."
