Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The assessment findings for moderate (+2) anxiety typically include poor concentration, narrow perceptions, and irritability. Distorted perceptions, disorientation, defensiveness, irrational reasoning, and loss of contact with reality are more indicative of severe anxiety or a more serious mental health condition. Alertness, attentiveness, and accurate perceptions are not typically associated with anxiety.
