Clinician's Global Impression (CGI) scale is a three item observer rated scale that measures illness severity, global improvement or change, and therapeutic response. It is rated on a seven point scale with the severity of illness scale using a range of responses from one (normal) to seven (around the most severely ill patients). Each component of the CGI is rated separately; the instrument does not yield a global score.

This will serve as the measure of overall improvement in the patients symptoms because of the FBS treatment.

The CSDS was designed to measure the extent to which the child's anxiety symptoms were interfering with daily functioning. The CSDS is an adaptation of the Sheehan Disability Scale and consisted of items inquiring about the degree to which the child's anxiety symptoms interfere with school, social, and family functioning. As on the SDS, items are measured on an 11-point Likert-type scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 10 (very, very much) .The wording of the anchors on the SDS was adapted to be more appropriate for children. A parent version (CSDS-P) that included six items was also created. The CSDS-P included three items that assessed the degree to which the parents perceived the child's anxiety symptoms to be interfering with the child's functioning (school, social, family) as well as three items that assessed the degree to which the child's symptoms were viewed as interfering with the parent's functioning (work, social, family).
