Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mono-operation bias occurs when a study's conclusion is based on one aspect of the intervention and ignores other potential factors. In this case, the question is asking whether Wanda's intervention affects the cognitive components of performance anxiety, which suggests that the intervention may be too narrowly focused on breathing control and not taking into account other factors that could impact cognition.
