Study Tips of the Week:

Test anxiety reduction strategies often require more determination and effort than other types of strategies: As you begin to feel anxious, you can create a relaxation response to avoid the negative effects of anxiety (i.e., tension, nervousness, forgetfulness, knots in stomach, nausea, shortness of breath).

  • This can be done by focusing on a favorite landscape, song, or happy moment, or even by counting.
  • This is often among the easiest to implement and the most effective in dealing quickly and immediately with anxiety.
  • Some specific relaxation strategies are listed in "Learning Your Way."
