Lorena had a big social studies test that she was very anxious about. To deal with her test anxiety, she studied all week and attended study groups to help her feel prepared. The night before the test, she packed all the materials she needed in her bag and went to bed early. For some reason, she still felt anxious and wondered what else she could have done to reduce her test anxiety.?

Consider reframing her thoughts on the exam, using the cognitive model.

Explanation:

According to the cognitive model proposed by Aaron Beck, our feelings are consecuence of our thoughts and interpretations of the real world.

Thoughts > Emotion > Behavior.

In this Particular case, Lorena was feeling very anxious, but the feeling of anxiousness is a consequence of the thoughts that Lorena has about the exam.

Lorena is probably thinking that she is going to fail the exam, no matter how much she prepares, she will fail. That thought is causing Lorena to feel anxious, even if she prepares.

Lorena has to modify her anticipatory thoughts in order for the anxiety to fade away.
