One of the most widespread
clinical tests used in
Germany today to describe one's
self image using
psychoanalytic and
psychosocial considerations. The test is separated into 40 statements with 6 scales: social response,
dominance,
self-control, underlying
mood,
permeability, and social
potence.
The number system works as follows:
The closer you feel to the first statement, circle a number to the left of the zero. The closer you feel to the second statement, circle a number to the right of the zero. If you feel neutral, circle the zero.
