Answer to Question 2

a . The Yerkes-Dodson law describes an inverted U-shaped curve in which very low and very high arousal are associated with poor performance, but moderate arousal is associated with high performance.
b. The reason for this relationship is due to the influence of emotional arousal on attention. When someone is not at all emotionally aroused, they are not paying much attention, and this undermines performance.
c. When someone is extremely emotionally aroused, it becomes hard to focus attention. Again, performance is impaired with poorer attention.
d. At moderate levels of arousal, attention peaks, and consequently performance tends to be enhanced.
