Anxiety Level Test

Understand how anxiety shows up in your thoughts, body, and behaviour

What this test measures

This test draws on two validated instruments: the Generalised Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7), developed by Spitzer et al. for identifying generalised anxiety, and the Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ), the leading measure of worry as a cognitive trait. Together, they cover anxiety as a cognitive experience (worry and rumination), a physical experience (somatic symptoms), and a behavioural experience (avoidance and control behaviours). This adaptation is for educational self-reflection only.

What the Anxiety Level Test measures

Your answers are scored across 3 core dimensions:

• Worry & Rumination

  Your worry and rumination is moderate. You experience meaningful bouts of anxious thinking — particularly in uncertain or high-stakes situations — but you can generally redirect your attention when the context is clear and safe. The worry is a real presence in your mental landscape without entirely dominating it.

• Physical Symptoms

  Your physical anxiety symptoms are moderate. You experience meaningful physical correlates of anxiety — tension, sleep disruption, restlessness — particularly during periods of high stress or uncertainty, but these do not consistently dominate your daily experience. You may have found some strategies that help manage the physical dimension.

• Avoidance & Control

  Your avoidance and control behaviours are moderate. You have some tendencies toward reassurance-seeking, over-planning, or avoiding specific situations that feel threatening, but these do not yet dominate your choices or significantly narrow your life. In familiar, lower-stakes conditions, you can tolerate uncertainty reasonably well.

How to read your results

Results from the Anxiety Level Testare for self-reflection and personal insight. No personality test captures the full complexity of a person, and your result is a snapshot of how you answered today — not a fixed label. Use it as a starting point for understanding patterns in how you think, decide, and relate to others, then take what resonates and leave what doesn’t.
