- gcheong 17y agoI think it makes more sense if you think of the perceived difficulty of a challenge being relative and linked to the skill level for a particular person. That is, for a person with low-middle skill there is a challenge level that creates anxiety. Give that same challenge to a lower skill level person and it will create even more anxiety. So the scales are different between people of different skill level. I don't know if that helps at all.
- teamonkey 17y agoYeah. If you're in the Anxiety area it means that you're under-skilled and over-challenged for the task in question. A little bit of anxiety might not be bad though. As your skills improve then you might pass in to the Arousal phase. But also as your skills improve the challenge is decreased (gravitate towards the middle). Eventually you might become over-skilled at the task and the challenge becomes low, then you're Relaxed.
