Barlow Anxiety Inventory
The Barlow Anxiety Inventory (BAI) is a self-report questionnaire designed to measure the severity of a person’s anxiety symptoms. It consists of a series of questions about common anxious feelings and physical sensations, such as nervousness, sweating, or heart pounding. By rating how often these experiences occur, the BAI helps mental health professionals assess the level of anxiety someone is experiencing, which can be useful for diagnosing anxiety disorders and monitoring treatment progress. It is a standard, reliable tool used in clinical settings for understanding and addressing anxiety symptoms.
