Furthermore, for the domicile of the respondents, as many as 98 people (84%) live outside the city of Surabaya, and 19 people (16%) live in Surabaya. So that the results of the validity test of the anxiety instrument developed by Robert L. Spitzer, Janet B.W. Williams, Kurt Kroenke, (1999) who were then analyzed using SPSS version 23 showed that the value of r table = 0.17 with N = 120 means that the instrument is declared valid because the value of r count> r table or the probability value = 0.000 <0.05 and the value of Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.784> r table = 0.177 indicates a reliable instrument /. In conclusion, this anxiety instrument is very valid and reliable to determine the impact of the Covid 19 epidemic on the mental health of students with disabilities.
