Anxiety Scales

Anxiety scales are questionnaires that individuals and mental health professionals use to determine a person's level of anxiety, if any. There are different anxiety scales to measure different types of anxiety. Some scales are for a particular age range and gender.

Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children

• The Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC) is aimed at children ages 8 to 19. It determines if a child in this age range suffers from an anxiety disorder. There are both a long and a short version of MASC. The long version finds inconsistencies and fully assesses first-time users. The short version is for follow-up testing.
