PsikofilolojiIn everyday language
Anxiety is a feeling of unease about what might happen. It can involve worry, physical tension and changes in behaviour. Occasional anxiety is part of ordinary life.
A closer look
In the NIMH RDoC research framework, anxiety is approached through potential threat: harm is uncertain, ambiguous or relatively distant. This is one operational model for research, rather than a complete definition of every experience called anxiety.
Read the everyday and research definitions together. A research construct, an ordinary feeling and a clinical disorder belong to different levels of description.
Persistent anxiety that disrupts daily life deserves professional assessment; this entry cannot establish a diagnosis.
