“…In general, the available evidence suggests that students in learning situations experience quite low levels of arousal and that simultaneous high arousal among group members seems rare (Harley, Jarrell, et al, 2019;Malmberg et al, 2019;Pijeira-Díaz, Drachsler, Kirschner, et al, 2018). Instances of high arousal have been linked to both negative and positive affective states (Ahonen et al, 2018;Harley, Jarrell, et al, 2019;Malmberg et al, 2019;Törmänen et al, 2021b), to learning challenges and regulation of learning (Malmberg et al, 2019;Törmänen et al, 2021a), and to both low and high performance (Harley, Jarrell, et al, 2019;Mason et al, 2018;Pijeira-Díaz, Drachsler, Kirschner, et al, 2018;Pizzie & Kraemer, 2018). Also, changes in physiological states have been studied in relation to regulation of learning and emotion regulation.…”
