In addition to this, the Interview process with Julia Merkel (2016), a psychologist, enhanced the credibility and reliability of the research outcome. However, due to the word limit placed on the research outcome, I was required to limit the number of aspects that I could incorporate within the outcome. However, the report primarily focused on most critical effects of anxiety therefore, it was in-depth specific to the effects of anxiety. Due to the extensive range of sources used and investigated, I believe that I have answered my research question with clarity, reliability and
