Detailed explanation-1: -When students perceive the arousal that accompanies test-taking as energizing rather than debilitating, they experience much less anxiety. This is best understood in terms of the: Two-factor theory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Schachter and Singer’s (1962) Two-Factor Theory of Emotion suggests that physiological arousal determines the strength of the emotion, while cognitive appraisal identifies the emotion label. So, in this theory, the “two-factor” represents physiological change and cognitive appraisal change.
Detailed explanation-3: -The theory was created by researchers Stanley Schachter and Jerome E. Singer. According to the theory, when an emotion is felt, a physiological arousal occurs and the person uses the immediate environment to search for emotional cues to label the physiological arousal.
Detailed explanation-4: -Arousal can be mental (cognitive), emotional (affective), or physical-sometimes referred to as the three parts of arousal theory or the three types of arousal.
