Abstract
Scores of 72 female undergraduates on an anxiety scale were compared with the number of personal problems reported on the Mooney Problem Check List. Total number of personal problems correlated positively (p < .01) with the subtypes and total anxiety scores. No clear-cut pattern of relationships between subtypes of anxiety and problem areas emerged.
