Resumo

A Fear Survey Schedule for Children (FSS-FC) was developed. This scale and the Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale (CMAS) were administered to fifty-nine boys and forty girls ages 9 through 12. A factor analysis was performed on each scale yielding factored subscales intended for use in clinical assessment and research in children's fears. A comparison was made between the fear and anxiety scales and an overall correlation of 0.49 between the FSS-FC and CMAS was similar to that obtained in adult studies.
