Adult Attachment Questionnaire AAQ

17 questions · 3 min

Shows how you usually feel in close relationships, along two dimensions: how much you avoid closeness and how much you worry that you are not loved or will be left. It helps you see patterns that repeat in your relationships.

How to answer

Think about romantic relationships in general, not only your current one. For each statement, mark how true it is of you, from “not true at all” to “very true”. If you are not in a relationship right now, answer the way things usually are for you.

The result is for information only. It is based only on your answers and may not describe you exactly. A test does not give a diagnosis. Please don’t diagnose yourself from a test result. Your answers are kept only on this device for 7 days, so you can continue later.
