Frequency and Intensity of Anxiety in University Students
Janisse, Michel Pierre; Palys, T. S.
Journal of Personality Assessment, 40, 5, 502-15, Oct 76
One thousand and ninety-seven university students (455 males; 642 females) named, "...three situations that make you anxious..." and rated the intensity of the anxiety in each situation. Correlations between frequency of occurrence and rated intensity for situations named more than once were negligible for both sexes. The correlations between male and female frequency and male and female intensity were positive and significant for the shared items, indicating that their experiences of these anxiety situations vary in similar ways.
