un affect anxieux sans exacerbation
Here's the context:
Monsieur présente une psychomotricité très légèrement tendue, il dégage un affect anxieux d’intensité légère sans exacerbation. Cela ne l’empêche pas d’avoir accès à son potentiel intellectuel, d’avoir une bonne concentration, une bonne structure de pensée.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

seems a little anxious, but not unduly so
Something that is exacerbated is exaggerated (in the sense of being heightened, or intensified).
I think plain English can do the job here.

Not necessarily.

Actually, the "description" here might help confirm what I have just posted, that is, that "affect" is emotion/feeling as perceived by an observer. https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Psychologic...

The first part of the sentence describes how the individual "présente une psychomotricité très légèrement tendue". In other words, he presents as being slightly tense/displays signs of mild tension, seems and little anxious, but not unduly so.

: There is no mention of a disorder as such here (trouble anxieux), and as "anxiety" is more generally used to describe a disorder, I think "anxiousness" is a slightly better choice here.

That is why I have both options Nikki but the disorder is highly probable.

| Yes, you're right Nikki, the report refers to "affect" not "affection". |

Nikki Scott-Despaigne
: I think you have confused "affect" and "affection"; they do not have the same meaning. I cannot see anything about the person being at all clingy.
