This article examines the theories of anxiety on the chemical and defense system of the body. Anxiety is actually experienced by all people. Anxiety is a diffuse, very unpleasant, and often vague feeling that is often accompanied by symptoms of autonomic system such as chest tightness, palpitations, sweating, headache, brief stomach discomfort, and restlessness characterized by inability to sit or stand. The total number of symptoms that exist during anxiety is different between people. The classification of anxiety disorders in psychology is justified by many obstacles, which are on the one hand, due to the gradual formation of the personality structure in the periods of transformation and the importance of communication issues in these periods, and on the other hand, they originate from the disagreement of different authors about the scope of anxiety disorders. Currently, due to the existence of such problems and despite the existence of different classifications, a specific classification approved by all psychologists and psychiatrists, that is, can cover the realm of anxiety disorders during the transformation period, avoid the risk of ignoring an anxiety disorder and it is not possible to investigate the risk factors and how the disorders evolve, and also to enable the correct evaluation of psychotherapy methods.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of training anxiety and stress management skills (cognitive-behavioral) on the reduction of anxiety and anger in conditional students. The statistical population included all of the conditioned university students. The sample consisted of 30 probation students, 15 experimental group and 15 control group who were selected by available sampling method. The instruments used in this research included Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) 1990 with validity and validity of 0.92, 0.75 and Welsh's Interrogations Questionnaire (MWQ) 1997 with validity and validity of 0.88, 0.79. For the experimental intervention (stress management skills training), the training package Saramak Immar (2001) was used for 8 sessions of 90 minutes. Data were analyzed using descriptive methods and inferential statistics methods including covariance analysis (MANCOVA), which was performed using SPSS-21 software. Anxiety and stress management (cognitive-behavioral) skills training was significantly related to the reduction of anxiety and anesthesia in conditioned students.
