The Personal Report of Communication Apprehension (PRCA-24) is a reliable and valid measure of an individual's level of communication apprehension. The instrument consists of 24 items rated on a scale from 0 (not at all apprehensive) to 4 (extremely apprehensive). PRCA-24 scores can range from 0 to 96, with higher scores indicating greater levels of communication apprehension. Individuals who score above the midpoint (48) on the PRCA-24 are considered high in communication apprehension. Therefore, the PRCA-24 can be used to help individuals identify their level of communication apprehension and to develop strategies for reducing their anxiety.
