Acceptable anxiety 6

Anxiety is the ability of a person to enter a state of increased anxiety, to experience fear and anxiety in specific situations.
Frustration is an emotionally difficult experience by a person of his failure, accompanied by a feeling of hopelessness and frustration in achieving a certain desired goal.
Self-esteem is a person’s assessment of his own qualities, strengths and weaknesses.
Aggression (hostility) is a person’s behavior towards other people, which is characterized by the desire to cause them trouble and harm.
Rigidity is one of the most important personality traits, which represents difficulty (up to complete inability) in changing the program of activity planned by a person in conditions that objectively require its restructuring.

Processing the results:
The sum of points is calculated - the correct answers corresponding to the “key”:
“YES” - questions: 3, 5, 7, 10, 16, 20, 26, 27, 29, 32, 35, 37, 40, 41, 42, 44, 45, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 56, 57, 59, 60, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84;
“NO” - questions: 2, 12, 13, 14, 19, 21, 23, 24, 28, 30, 33, 38, 39, 46, 54, 55, 58, 61, 68.
The technique contains a scale for checking the sincerity of answers:
“NO” - questions: 1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 15, 17, 18, 22, 25, 31, 34, 36, 43.
Summarizing should begin by checking the sincerity of the respondent’s answers: if the respondent scores 5 or more points on this scale, the survey results are unreliable, because the person wants to appear better, and not as he is.
Interpretation of results:
The more points received, the greater the neuropsychic instability. The obtained score must be correlated with the conditional NPU scale; it ranges from 1 to 10 points. The higher the value of the item on the conditional scale, the greater the nervous and mental stability.

The self-assessment test for mental states was developed by the famous psychologist Hans Eysenck.
Using the test, you can, to a first approximation, determine the levels of mental states such as anxiety, frustration, aggressiveness, and rigidity.
Anxiety– an individual mental feature, manifested in a person’s tendency to frequent and intense experiences of anxiety, as well as a low threshold for its occurrence. Here, anxiety acts as an experience of emotional discomfort associated with the expectation of trouble, with a premonition of impending or perceived danger.
Frustration- a mental state caused by failure to satisfy a need or desire. Manifests itself in negative experiences: disappointment, irritation, anxiety, despair, etc.
Aggressiveness- unprovoked hostility of a person towards people and the world around him, not caused by objective circumstances. It manifests itself in a tendency to attack, cause trouble, harm people, animals, and the environment. Sometimes manifests itself in the form of a demonstration of superior strength in relation to another person or other social object.
Rigidity– difficulty (up to complete inability) in changing the program of activity planned by the subject in conditions that objectively require its restructuring. A personality trait that has the opposite meaning is plasticity.
