Abstract

Mass shootings are becoming more prevalent. Thus, determining who has mass shootings anxiety (MSA) is vital. A ROC curve analysis ascertained cutoffs on the MSA subscales that identified individuals with dysfunctional levels of mass shootings anxiety. These scores can help professionals screen for individuals in need of mental health services.
