Explain how anxiety and depression affect students’ school and social functioning?
What will be an ideal response?
Students with anxiety perform below their ability, earn lower grades, avoid peer interactions, and may appear less competent in social situations because of a heightened state of arousal in academic and/or social situations. Students with depression tend to have lower academic performance and are more likely to be isolated by peers, have suicidal behaviors, and drop out of school.
