Review for the original edition:
"The unique contribution of [this book] is that it examines the processes that mediate the effects of interventions on anxiety and performance. ...[It] represents a major step forward in research in this field. This book has made a major contribution to my own thinking, and I am confident that it will be useful to many others - those dealing with the practical problems of helping test-anxious students as well as investigators during research in the area." - W. J. McKeachie, Ann Arbor, Michigan, from the Foreword
