The present study analyzes the different meanings of anxiety measured using the
self-reported questionaire technique. Recently, three specific anxiety scales used to
measure a particular meaning of anxiety were shown since the State-Trait Anxiety
Inventory has been presented following the Manifest Anxiety Scale. ῌ # The Endler
Multidimensional Anxiety Scale. This is based on the interaction model of personality and
provides three types of instruments for assessing anxiety : $a# an individual predisposition, $b# transitory state responses, $c# individual’s perception of situational threat. ῍ #
Anxiety Sensitivity Index. This can assess anxiety due to cognitive vulnerability. The
scale is a useful tool for measuring the sensation of anxiety that cognitive theory hypothesized to be a result of cognitive bias produced in the course of information processing of
anxiety-inducing experiences. ῎ # Yamamoto’s anxiety scale. The scale measuring two
aspects of anxiety, namely both positive and negative anxiety, provides ῍῏ items to
measure these two aspects. According to this proposition, both anxieties are concerned
with the process of human ego integration for growth promotion. Findings related to the
three scales and theories are reviewed and discussed.
