Abstract: Environmental atmospheres of lecture and test for high anxious and low anxious students were factorially manipulated in order to assess the effect on classroom test performance. Results indicated that an unrelaxed lecture atmosphere was more conducive to optimal test performance than a relaxed lecture atmosphere. Other factors and all interactions were found to be insignificant. Theoretical implications were discussed.
