Research by Sweeny and Shepperd (2010) had students predicting their grades and measured their emotions during the prediction and after the actual grades were known. Their findings indicate:

B) Pessimistic students felt good about their accurate predictions and even showed positive emotions when predicting their own poor performance. C) Optimistic students reported more positive emotions when making their predictions and also felt much worse when their actual scores were lower than their predictions.
