Of the many factors that contribute to poor performance on standardized tests like the SAT, nerves and【C1】______ , surprisingly, may not rank very high. In fact, according to a new paper published in Journal of Experimental Psychology, a little anxiety—not to mention fatigue—might actually be a very good thing.

The tests would take three-and-a-half hours, four-and-a-half hours and five-and-a-half-hours, and would be administered in a【C4】______ order to each of the students.

They completed the questionnaire again at a break in the middle of the test and once more at the end.

On the four-and-a-half-hour version it was 1,222; on the five-and-a-half-hour test it was 1,237.
