COVID-19 Anxiety Scale

The COVID-19 Anxiety Scale (CAS) is a brief, self-administered instrument designed to assess anxiety symptoms specifically related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Developed by Lipp and colleagues in 2020, it captures worry about infection, social isolation, and pandemic-related uncertainties. The scale is widely used in epidemiological surveys and clinical research to identify individuals experiencing pandemic-related anxiety requiring intervention.
