—Anxiety criteria

1.4.1 Diagnostic criteria for anxiety disorders and fear-related disorders.

  • diagnostic criteria (ICD-11) of anxiety disorders and fear-related disorders:.
  • generalised anxiety disorder.
  • agoraphobia.
  • specific phobia (blood-injection-injury).

This matters because —anxiety criteria determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply —anxiety criteria to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: —Anxiety criteria is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
