University of Cambridge
Introduced the Autism-Spectrum Quotient, a widely used self-report measure of autistic traits in adults.
Baron-Cohen et al., 2001University of Cambridge
Showed that a short autism-trait questionnaire works as a "red flag" for referral to a full assessment, not as a diagnosis. We frame every autism result the same way.
Allison, Auyeung & Baron-Cohen, 2012Karolinska Institutet
Found that autism questionnaires pick up most autistic adults but also give high scores to many people with ADHD or other conditions. Our results explain this.
Eriksson, Andersen & Bejerot, 2013Harvard Medical School · World Health Organization
Developed the WHO adult ADHD screener, which asks how often inattention and hyperactivity symptoms happen. Our ADHD test uses the same never-to-very-often scale.
Kessler et al., 2005Harvard Medical School · World Health Organization
Updated the WHO screener for DSM-5 and found that about one in three positive screens did not meet diagnostic criteria.
Ustun et al., 2017University of Southampton · University of Cambridge · University of Chicago
Showed that brief ADHD screeners flag far more adults than actually have ADHD. Our high-score results say so and point you to a full assessment.
Chamberlain, Cortese & Grant, 2021Columbia University · Indiana University
Developed and validated the GAD-7, the 7-question anxiety scale our anxiety test uses word for word, with the same scoring.
Spitzer et al., 2006Indiana University · Columbia University
Developed and validated the PHQ-9, the depression questionnaire used in clinics worldwide.
Kroenke, Spitzer & Williams, 2001Indiana University · U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Showed that the PHQ-8, the PHQ-9 without its self-harm question, measures current depression well in the general population. Our depression test uses it word for word.
Kroenke et al., 2009Proposed the four adult attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant and fearful) that our attachment results use.
Bartholomew & Horowitz, 1991University of Illinois
Refined how attachment anxiety and avoidance are measured, the two dimensions our attachment test scores.
Fraley, Waller & Brennan, 2000Oregon Research Institute
Created the International Personality Item Pool, a public-domain bank of Big Five items. Our Big Five test uses its items.
Goldberg et al., 2006National Center for PTSD
The PTSD checklist created by the US National Center for PTSD. It is in the public domain, and our PTSD test uses its 20 questions and scoring unchanged.
Weathers et al., 2013Developed the PCL-5 and tested it in two groups of trauma-exposed college students, finding it reliable and a good match for the DSM-5 symptom groups.
Blevins et al., 2015National Center for PTSD
Tested the PCL-5 in veterans and found that a total of 31 to 33 was the most accurate point for spotting probable PTSD. Our report is built around that range.
Bovin et al., 2016Oregon Research Institute
Described the public-domain International Personality Item Pool, the source of the two scales in our social anxiety test.
Goldberg, 1999Found that four-letter type scales measure four fairly independent dimensions, not true either-or types, and that they line up with four of the Big Five traits. That is why our report shows how strong each preference is.
McCrae & Costa, 1989Oregon Research Institute
Described the International Personality Item Pool, which makes thousands of personality items free for anyone to use. All 32 questions in our 16 types test come from it.
Goldberg et al., 2006Pennsylvania State University
Built a free 120-question inventory that measures 30 facets of the Big Five and tested it on more than 600,000 people. Our in-depth Big Five test uses its items.
Johnson, 2014These researchers and institutions are not affiliated with SelfAssessment.io and do not endorse it.
No. These are screening questionnaires for self-reflection. Only a qualified clinician can diagnose autism, ADHD or any other condition. If your results concern you, share them with a doctor or psychologist.
