Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Anxiety score
Anxiety severity measured using the Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ). The PSWQ is a 16-item validated measure of the tendency toward excessive, uncontrollable worry, the cognitive hallmark of Generalized Anxiety Disorder. The association between anxiety score and digit measurement will be evaluated. Total scores range from 16 to 80, with higher scores indicating greater worry severity. A score ≥45 is commonly used as a clinical cutoff in research settings, with ≥60 strongly associated with Generalized Anxiety Disorder criteria.
