Respuesta :

Answer: B. Pre-performance anxiety

This kind of anxiety, when you are organizing or writing a speech, has to do with the variables that interact with the anxiety to affect performance such as audience size, perceptions of audience expectations, self-focused attention, and general anxiety.

In public speaking situations, people's questions, beliefs, and expectancies about such things as the audience, the envirnment, the speech itself, and their role in the setting ma be affected, or related to, dispositional speech anxiety, which in the case is represented by pre-performance anxiety.
