WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Anxiety Level Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs

uneasiness

This measure is designed to support brief screening of anxiety symptoms in everyday contexts, particularly in adolescent populations. The Anxiety Level Scale uses self-report responses to estimate the frequency and intensity of anxious thoughts and feelings.

The instrument includes 38 items and typically takes about 7 minutes to complete. In practice, results may help identify individuals who could benefit from additional evaluation, monitoring, or supportive intervention; it is not intended to serve as a standalone diagnostic assessment.

The Anxiety Level Scale is attributed to Charles D. Spielberger and is commonly used in educational and clinical settings where a time-efficient index of anxiety severity is needed.
