Denied
The Board denied an evaluation in excess of 50 percent for the Veteran's service-connected anxiety disorder, finding that the symptoms more closely approximated reduced reliability and productivity rather than deficiencies in most areas.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas or total occupational and social impairment as required for a higher rating.
