OASIS Anxiety Screening
The Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale is a validated 5-item brief measure of anxiety severity and functional impairment over the past week — useful as a transdiagnostic screen across all anxiety disorders.
This is a validated screening instrument for informational and self-monitoring purposes only. It is not a diagnostic tool and does not replace professional clinical evaluation. If you are in crisis, contact 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline or call 911.
The following questions ask about anxiety and fear. For each, please indicate the level that best matches your experience over the past week.
In the past week, how often have you felt anxious?
In the past week, when you felt anxious, how intense or severe was your anxiety?
In the past week, how often did you avoid situations, places, objects, or activities because of anxiety or fear?
In the past week, how much did your anxiety interfere with your ability to do the things you needed to do at work, school, or home?
In the past week, how much did your anxiety interfere with your social life and relationships?
