Steve is a football player who is playing on his high school team for the first time. in his first game his performance is poor. he doesn’t score any touchdowns and drops several passes. how would you explain steve’s performance

   Steve is experiencing evaluation apprehension

Explanation:  Since Steve was playing for his high school team for the first time, he knew that others would be watching and evaluating his game, and among those watching him were coaches, therefore, on whom his future playing on the team depends. Based on the coach's judgement, it depends on whether Steve will play the next game, etc., which means a reward / penalty concept based on what others think of Steve. This means that during the game, Steve has been thinking about what others think of him that causes arousal, and that arousal can improve or diminish our work,  in Steve's case was that this excitement diminished his performance in the match.

It means that when we work in the presence of others who are watching over us, we think like Steve, what do they think about our work and that can improve or diminish our performance, so we have experienced evaluation apprehension.
