Muhtasari	Brief Phobia Scales are a collection of short, focused self-report instruments designed to measure fear and anxiety related to specific phobias such as agoraphobia, claustrophobia, fear of flying, fear of heights, and other circumscribed fears. Developed by various researchers including Woody and Lohr, these scales provide rapid, phobia-specific assessment in clinical and research settings, valued for their brevity and practical utility in treatment planning and outcome monitoring.	The GAD-7 is a brief 7-item self-report questionnaire designed to screen for and measure the severity of generalized anxiety disorder in adolescents and adults. Developed by Spitzer, Kroenke, Williams, and Löwe in 2006, it has become one of the most widely used anxiety screening tools in primary care, mental health research, and clinical practice due to its brevity, excellent psychometric properties, and ease of administration.
