We present an initial validation of the State Anxiety Scale for Children (SASC) for Portuguese children and adolescents. No significant differences were found between sexes and among school cycle groups. The data revealed good psychometric properties and the 'anxiety-absent' and 'anxiety-present' factors were confirmed. Potential applications of the instrument are presented.
