it’s 7:15 a.m. right now and I’m hungry. I think I’ll get some food
downstairs—I might get a stomachache before the test. I hope I pass!
Well, I’m back from work. It’s 3:30 p.m. I’m about to watch tele-
vison right now. Then I’m going to study for my math test tomorrow.
It’s pretty easy, so I think I can do it. Well, I can’t wait until this week-
end, when I can relax. My friend is having a party that should be fun
and I’m going home Friday afternoon—Yes! Gotta study, Bye
Fri. Nov. 20th
It’s 7:30 a.m. I work up early to review for my math test. I’m really
scared right now. I’m not very confident. I reviewed a little here and
there. I know the material though. I also have a paper due for my Art
of Asia class at 2 p.m. today. I finished it a while ago, so at least that
stress is gone. I can’t wait to go home this weekend. I will soon be
able to see my friends again. I guess I’ll leave for class now.
I’m back from my math test. It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would
be. I don’t want to be too confident because it might turn out nega-
tive. I hope I did well. Well, I’m going to turn in my Art of Asia paper.
Then I am going to go home... Yeah!

ANALYSIS OF SELF-MANAGEMENT STUDY #3
Self-Observation and Evaluation
Strengths. The student does a good job identifying her anxiety problem and
describing both internal factors (e.g., low confidence, and low self-efficacy)
and behaviors (e.g., negative self-talk) that contribute to her problem. Fur-
ther, she provides the reader with evidence to support her self-evaluation: her
scores on the Learning and Study Skills Inventory, answers to the follow-up
activities in chapter 5, quiz and self-efficacy scores in this course, and her
quiz scores in her math course that support her self-evaluation claims.
