Hey I see you are looking at discussing anticipation and gender differences, in my study i came across anticipation of success followed by the ancticipation of negative consequencesin women. that would be interesting to look into firther in your chapter. the article is 'FEAR OF SUCCESS IN MALES AND FEMALES' by Hoffman in Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology,1974, Vol. 42, No. 3 and contains a little bit on that anticipation.

 * Hey! i found another article that you may potenetially be able to use for treatments of anticipation: Relaxation Versus Cognitive Therapies for Dental Fear — A Psychophysiological Approach by Jesper Lundgren, Sven G. Carlsson, and Ulf Berggren in Health Psychology. (Found on EBSCO database in our library subject guide)best of luck on this chapter. Thosecows (discuss • contribs) 09:38, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

I think my previous contribution failed. Take 2. I'm not sure how far you have come in your research. I would consider pursuing anticipation under the core emotion of Fear. How does Anticipation differ to Procrastination? Does the perceived difficulty of the task have an effect on experienced levels of anticipation? Are there gender differences between anticipatory behaviours or inhibitory behaviours that might hold somebody back from a particular behaviour? Is anticipation more related to fear (neg aspect) or curiosity & openness to experience (pos aspect)? Hope these questions help :) Best of luck!
