Matthew Is Calm During Exams and Works Hard on All

question 64

Essay

Matthew is calm during exams and works hard on all school assignments-even when assignments are not going to be graded. However, his girlfriend, Maria, tends to have high feelings of anxiety in evaluative situations (especially when dealing with new information) and often performs poorly because of this anxiety. Discuss the underlying issues you think are most likely causing these two behavioral profiles and how these issues are related. Also, why do you think Mathew and Maria have developed these idiosyncrasies? Focus on parenting issues rather than on issues related to Matthew and Maria's gender or their peers.
