The IDRlabs Anxiety Disorders Test (IDR-ADT©) was developed by IDRlabs International. The IDR-ADT is based on five psychological measurements: The General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN), the Adult Separation Anxiety Questionnaire (ASA-27), the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale (PAS), and the Severity Measure for Specific Phobia (Adult). The IDR-ADT is not associated with any specific researchers in the field of psychopathology, or their affiliated research institutions.

The IDRlabs Anxiety Disorders Test was informed by the General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7; Spitzer, Kroenke, Williams, and Lowe, 2006), the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN; Connor, 2000), the Adult Separation Anxiety Questionnaire (ASA-27; Manicavasagar, Silove, Wagner, and Drobny, 2003), the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale (PAS; Bandelow, 1999), and the Severity Measure for Specific Phobia, Adult Version (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). These clinical instruments are intended for use by qualified professionals and researchers. The present test is intended for educational and entertainment purposes only. IDRlabs International and the present Anxiety Disorders Test are independent from any of the above researchers, organizations, or their affiliated institutions.
