Anticipatory stress or worry about what might happen in the future is defined as which type?

Future Stress Current Stress Temporary Stress Past Stress

Correct Answer:

Future Stress

Explanation:

Anticipatory stress is the worry and physical arousal you feel before something might happen, focusing on possible future events rather than what’s happening now or what already occurred. The term Future Stress fits because it specifically names this forward-looking pattern of stress that arises from concerns about what could occur later. For example, you might feel anxious about an upcoming exam or a job interview. The other labels don’t match this time orientation: current stress refers to stress happening in the present moment, past stress to stress from events that have already happened, and temporary stress describes how long the stress lasts rather than when it’s about.
