    Let \(p\) be a prime, and let \(v\in \mathbb{Z}_p^*\) be an element of multiplicative order \(t\) modulo \(p\). The exponential sum NEWLINE\[NEWLINES(a)= \sum_{x=1}^t \exp(2\pi i\nu^{x^2}/p)NEWLINE\]NEWLINE is considered. The main result is the proof that NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\max_{\text{gcd}(a,p)=1} |S(a)|= O(t^{5/6+\varepsilon} p^{1/8}).NEWLINE\]
