The Yerkes-Dodson law suggests that optimal performance is achieved with moderate levels of arousal. Too little arousal can lead to underperformance due to lack of motivation, while too much arousal can cause anxiety and impair performance. Therefore, Lillian is likely to perform well if her physiological arousal during the performance is moderate.
