Children and Young Anxiety Scale- CYAS: Scale Development and Psychometric Properties in Brazilian Sample

The aim of the study was to search for evidence of validity based on the relationship with external variables, and incrementally for the Child-Youth Anxiety Scale (CYAS). The convenience sample consists of 500 children and adolescents aged 10 to 18 years. The correlation between the scores of the C...
