Sullivan were analyzed and assessed.RESULTS: Anxiety was emotional experience occurred when an individual anticipated that his/her self-respect was threatened by internal and external stimulus but he felt that he could not cope with such threats. Whereas, it was up to the cognitive evaluation to determine whether such internal and external stimulus threatened self-respect and to identify whether one could handle such threats.CONCLUSION: Stimulation, self-respect, cognitive evaluation and ability are the key factors that determine the anxiety.
