ANALYSIS

Anxious persons are easily upset when things go slightly wrong and are inclined to worry unnecessarily about what may or may not happen. They are ruled by fears and suffer a high level of stress. When anxieties are exaggerated or irrational, emotions become unstable and may develop into neurotic compulsions or phobias.

Those with low scores are placid, serene and resistant to irrational fears and anxieties - that is, provided they are reasonably happy and outgoing. This implies an understanding that problems are best faced with equanimity, that resistance does not make them go away, and that problems - if faced squarely - are really the stuff that makes life interesting. A person in apathy or grief, however, may not feel anxiety because he has already given up (fear being a more causative emotional tone than apathy or grief).

How do you compare?

The norm on this trait is between 15-16 points (a statistical approximation). This may be represented on the following scale:

Anxiety 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 || 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Calm
