6.1.3. Anxiety

In the anxiety subscale of DASS-21, the mean result for the entire group was 7.71 ± 8.29 (equivalent for mild anxiety). Among the examined students, the intensity of anxiety defined as normal in the DASS-21 subscale concerned 60.2% (*n* = 1307) of the respondents. Mild anxiety affected 12.5% (*n* = 273) of the respondents, moderate—9% (*n* = 195), severe— 6.6% (*n* = 144), extremely severe—11.7% (*n* = 253). Again, as in the depression subscale women (M = 13.19 ± 11.54) reached (*p* < 0.001) a higher level of anxiety than male participants (M = 6.90 ± 9.92). Students of arts and humanities (Me = 6.00 ± 9.63), science (Me = 6.00 ± 9.2), social sciences (Me = 6.00 ± 8.63) reached the highest score, whereas medicine (Me = 4.00 ± 8.0) and engineering (Me = 4.00 ± 8.06) the lowest. The results did not vary significantly between different fields of studies (Supplementary Table S1.3).
