According to the Yerkes-Dodson Law, a medium dose of caffeine will prove to bring best performance
Explanation:
The Yerkes-Dodson Law empirically relates the performance with arousal. According to this law, “a performance can be increased through physiological or mental arousal, but only up to a limit. “
The stimulus will initially boost the performance but only to a certain limit. Hence, simply increasing the stimulus on and on will not boost the performance.
When Dr. Dameron provides arousal stimulus in the form of caffeine at high, medium and low doses to basketball players; it will be observed that only the players who received a medium dose of caffeine can perform well.
At low doses, the caffeine level will not be enough to stimulate the performance level.
At high doses, the players will not over perform but instead will not be able to perform due to intoxication of caffeine.
