Best state of learning is

  • A.high arousal, high fear.
  • B.low arousal, high fear.
  • C.moderate arousal, no fear.
  • D.no arousal, no fear.

Answer: C

The best state for learning is moderate arousal, no fear.

The Yerkes-Dodson law describes performance rising with arousal up to a moderate level and then falling. Moderate arousal keeps a learner alert and interested, while too much becomes stress. Fear in particular raises anxiety and blocks attention and memory.

High arousal with high fear, or low arousal with high fear, both include fear and so hinder learning. No arousal at all means boredom and lack of attention, so the learner is not engaged.
