Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Historically researchers have generally believed that there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between stress and performance.That is, low levels of stress lead to low performance (because people are not "charged up" to perform), but high levels of stress also lead to an energy-sapping fight-or-flight response that produces low performance.Optimal performance, according to this hypothesis, results when people are subjected to moderate levels of stress.
