In 1956, psychologists A. Castaneda, B. R. McCandless, D. S. Palermo developed an anxiety scale for 7 to 12 old children, which evaluates anxiety as a stable psychological reaction. Anxiety could lead to manifestations such as tension and nervousness, feelings of helplessness, insecurity and loneliness.
Anxiety also affects an individual physically: it provokes an increased heartbeat and fast breathing, an increase in blood pressure and general excitability of the child.
Psychologists believe that anxiety at a normal level contributes to adapting to a situation, an adequate response to a stimulus. But with extremely high indicators, a child may have problems when solving even ordinary tasks and interacting with the outside world.
