This online test is formulated according to the diagnostic criteria for social anxiety disorder.
If you are wondering whether you have Social Anxiety Disorder, this social anxiety test measures the likelihood of you having the disorder. Since the results of the test show probability of having the diagnosis, you must make an appointment with a professional mental health specialist if you seek a definitive diagnosis. The test can also be used for the sake of monitoring your progress after you have been diagnosed and while undergoing therapy.
Social anxiety disorder (SAD), or social phobia, is an anxiety disorder with the leading symptom of having a significant amount of fear in one or more social situations, causing considerable psychological distress and impaired ability of social functioning. Elevated anxiety in social settings could cause additional physical symptoms like excessive sweating, palpitations, trembling, excessive blushing, and nausea.
This test’s items covers all social anxiety disorder. However, as any other self-reported test, it does not replace proper professional assessment. If your score indicates that, you have a probability of having social phobia, but proper mental health assessment does not find any, it means that the test is mistaken in your case and provided a false-positive result.
