Bands

Minimal Exercise Symptom Fear

Expressions activating this band show little to no coherent fear about bodily sensations during physical activity, with content that is neutral, unrelated, or only incidentally mentions panic, exercise, or health.

Mild Exercise Symptom Fear

Expressions activating this band show fearfulness about unusual bodily sensations such as rapid heartbeat or pain, with emerging concern that exertion-related sensations are threatening and some tendency to avoid activities that trigger them.

Moderate Exercise Symptom Fear

Expressions activating this band show clear apprehension that sweating, dizziness, faintness, chest pain, or physical activity itself could be unsafe or harmful. Bodily sensations during exertion are interpreted as warning signs, and activity is treated as something to restrict or avoid.

High Exercise Symptom Fear

Expressions activating this band show strong worry that specific symptoms during exercise, including pain, blurred vision, pounding head, racing heart, dizziness, or chest tightness, indicate immediate danger or impending injury. Exercise is monitored through bodily alarm cues, and symptoms are treated as reasons to stop or limit exertion.

Anchor definitions

Minimal Substance Use Risk

Minimal Substance Use Risk: Substance use risk is present at a low level. Expressions activating this band reflect early or diffuse substance use risk.

Moderate Substance Use Risk

Moderate Substance Use Risk: Substance use risk is experienced here as physiological and somatic distress, reflecting embodied arousal and clinical-grade symptom intensity. Compared to the band below, substance use risk is more intense and concentrated but retains the same essential character. Expressions activating this band likely reflect physiological and embodied substance use risk.

Intense Substance Use Risk

Intense Substance Use Risk: Substance use risk is experienced here as observable behavioral patterns associated with problematic or disordered functioning. Unlike the band below, where substance use risk was characterized by the somatic and physiological form, the proxy here has shifted in character. The facets that dominated at lower levels have receded. Expressions activating this band engage with substance use risk at a level associated with formal behavioral assessment.

Peak Substance Use Risk

Peak Substance Use Risk: Substance use risk is present here in a general or mixed form without a single dominant facet. Unlike the band below, where substance use risk was characterized by the behavioral form, the proxy here has shifted in character. The facets that dominated at lower levels have receded. Expressions activating this band may reflect general or diffuse substance use risk.
