“…Public speaking anxiety causes clinically signicant distress and a marked impairment in dopamine functioning. Hannah Plaisted et al (2022) revealed that the global prevalence of anxiety in children and adolescents reaches 6.5%, with a mean age of 15 years (Plaisted et al, 2022). Adolescents who suffer from social anxiety are generally afraid to speak in front of the class, to appear in front of others, to ask questions of the teacher, to participate in conversations, and to do so in general.…”

Aim. This research was conducted through a descriptive-qualitative design that aimed to determine the factors of students' speaking anxiety. Methods. This study used qualitative research involving 205 eleventh grade students of Senior High School on Pontianak, Indonesia who had attended English lessons. Data on students' anxiety in speaking English were collected using two instruments: questionnaires and interviews. Result. eleventh graders students fall into the middle category, and their lack of mastery leads to speaking anxiety about grammar, a lack of vocabulary, and a lack of preparation. Conclusion. Foreign language anxiety, especially in speaking, is a challenging problem for most students. Therefore, teachers should provide opportunities for students to practice speaking in front of the class gradually because such activities will positively increase their self-confidence and perception of their performance in the target language. More importantly, teachers and students must collaborate by providing a better learning environment and setting achievable speaking performance standards. If this activity is carried out continuously, it will increase students' motivation in learning foreign languages, especially class XI students at Pontianak High School. Cognitive Value. This research will provide input for stakeholders, especially English teachers to overcome speaking anxiety in their classrooms.

Exposure therapy is the gold standard treatment for anxiety and obsessivecompulsive disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. Inhibitory Learning Theory offers a nuanced and advanced perspective on exposure treatment positing that violating threat expectancies is more important than habituation. This paper highlights the effectiveness of inhibitory learning theory-guided exposure procedures for youth with anxiety and OCD, chronic pain, and eating disorders. A topical review focusing on the theoretical foundations of inhibitory learning theory, crucial augmentations of the approach, and outcomes with pediatric patients diagnosed with anxiety, eating, and pain disorders is presented. The literature review indicated that inhibitory learning theory-driven exposure produced beneficent outcomes in the identified populations. Various limitations and future directions were discussed. Limitations notwithstanding, inhibitory learning theory-led exposure represents a viable treatment option for pediatric patients with anxiety, eating, and chronic pain disorders.
