This page is a disclosed SAS-style proxy for self-rated anxiety symptoms. It keeps the familiar 20-item, four-response rhythm and the classic raw-to-index framing, but it does not reproduce the restricted wording of the original questionnaire. Instead, it uses original prompts that mirror the same kind of symptom cadence for reflective use.
The main value of the result is that it keeps both the overall index and the symptom shape visible. Anxiety does not always cluster in one place. For some people it shows up most clearly as anticipatory worry. For others it is more physical alarm, persistent restlessness, or trouble settling back down after stress. This tool separates those layers so the score reads more like a working profile than a single severity stamp.
It is still a proxy, not a diagnosis. A high score can justify fuller follow-up, but it cannot tell you the cause of the anxiety pattern or replace professional assessment when symptoms are intense, escalating, or affecting safety.
The raw total runs from 20 to 80 and is converted into the classic 25 to 100 anxiety index used in SAS-style reporting. This tool keeps the standard reading lanes visible: 25 to 44 for the everyday range, 45 to 59 for elevated scores, 60 to 74 for marked elevation, and 75 to 100 for very high strain. An optional prior index field is included so repeat comparisons can stay on the same frame.
Under the top-line score, the items are grouped into four practical domains: anticipatory worry, body alarm, tension and restlessness, and recovery strain. That split is editorial rather than official, but it is useful because the next step after a score is rarely "do something about anxiety in general." It is usually "what part of the anxiety pattern is carrying the day right now?"
A quieter lane does not mean there is no anxiety. It means the overall pattern is landing below the classic review cue on this proxy. That is why the item pattern still matters in the lower band. If one domain is clearly higher than the rest, that domain can still identify a useful target even when the overall index is not elevated.
As the score rises, the value of fuller follow-up rises with it. The most useful handoff into care is concrete: the current index, the top domain, the strongest items, and the way those symptoms are affecting sleep, concentration, work, study, or day-to-day functioning. Repeating the same proxy can help track change over time, but it is best not to compare this score with a different anxiety screener that uses a different scale.
If anxiety is driving panic, marked sleep disruption, functional impairment, or thoughts of self-harm, a self-report screener is no longer the right ceiling. Use urgent or clinical support directly. The proxy can still be a useful record of symptoms, but it should not delay care.
