Poster Session IV

Keyword: Stress

Abstract: We developed a measure of threat appraisal in virtual reality. Preservice teachers with higher level of anxious attachment perceived the interactions simulated in virtual reality as more threatening. Preservice teachers that were exposed to unsupportive manager took longer to decide how to respond and rated the interaction as more stressful.
