Review MeasureEssential Measures are only those items that are critical to the collection of the Measure or are necessary for the interpretation of results. Essential Measures are integral to the Measure. Without such information the data collected would be incomplete and/or misleading.
An additional PhenX Measure that the user may find helpful based on the selection of a particular PhenX Measure. Related PhenX Measures can include additional Measures that are needed to calculate a Derived Variable (e.g., Weight and Height are needed to calculate BMI), Measures that are commonly used in presentations and publications to present the value of the chosen Measures (e.g., Height and Weight by Race and Ethnicity), Measures that are conceptually related to the chosen Measure (e.g., Current Educational Attainment is conceptually related to Annual Family Income and Arm Span is conceptually related to Height), Measures that are physiologically and/or biologically related to the chosen Measure (e.g., Stroke and Heart Disease).

Anxiety Disorders Screener #120200
Definition: A questionnaire to assess anxiety disorders, which includes a number of different conditions such as panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, specific phobia, agoraphobia, obsessive compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (American Psychiatric Association, 2000). Purpose: This measure is used to screen an individual for the presence of anxiety disorders and to assess the severity of underlying symptoms. Anxiety disorders are one of the most prevalent psychiatric conditions occurring in about 18 percent of the population (Kessler et al., 2005). Anxiety disorders may be influenced by genetics and environmental factors and commonly occur with other physical conditions such as cardiovascular, respiratory and gastrointestinal disease as well other mental illnesses such as depression and substance-abuse disorders (Psychiatric Association, 2000). Furthermore, a significant proportion of pediatric psychiatric patients have anxiety disorders.
