GAD-7 Anxiety Test | Online Anxiety Assessment
What Is the GAD-7 Anxiety Test?
The GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7) is one of the most widely used screening tools for anxiety. It consists of seven questions that reflect common symptoms of generalized anxiety such as excessive worry, restlessness, and difficulty relaxing.
Each item is scored from 0 to 3 based on symptom frequency during the past two weeks. The total score helps estimate the severity of anxiety symptoms.
Higher scores may indicate a greater likelihood of clinically significant anxiety that may require professional evaluation.
The GAD-7 questionnaire is widely used in primary care, psychiatry, and research settings worldwide as a quick and reliable screening instrument.
