Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anticipation appraisal refers to the assessment of the potential future or upcoming events, and Sara's waiting for the result of her blood sugar test is an example of this type of appraisal. She is anxious and worried about the potential negative outcome of the test. Outcomes appraisal, on the other hand, refers to the evaluation of the consequences of past or current events, agency appraisal refers to the assessment of one's ability to control or influence events, and equity appraisal refers to the evaluation of the fairness or justness of events or their consequences in comparison to others. None of these apply to Sara's situation as she is waiting for the test results.
