Attachment Style Test: What It Measures and How to Read Your Score

Attachment style forms in early childhood and deeply influences our adult relationships. This in-depth 63-question test explores the four main attachment styles: secure, anxious, avoidant and disorganised. Understanding your style will help you better grasp your emotional reactions in relationships and identify avenues for improvement. The results will give you a precise map of your relational tendencies.

In the article that follows, I explore attachment and how it shapes your relationships. Worth knowing: I offer ScanMyLove, a tool that analyses couple conversations from a simple export, to better understand a relationship's dynamic. And if you recognise yourself in this theme, I designed an attachment style test that helps you take stock of your attachment style and its influence on your relationship. It comes with a guide to extend your reflection beyond the results. I also wrote two books on this subject, Understanding Your Attachment Style and Avoidant Attachment: Understanding, Loving, and Breaking Free, if you would like to go further.

Take the test: Emotional Dependency Test → — If your style leans towards anxious attachment, this complementary test measures fear of abandonment and the need for reassurance.

What the test measures

• The ability to form stable bonds, to trust and to feel comfortable with intimacy.
• The tendency to fear abandonment, to excessively seek reassurance and to worry about the strength of the bond.
• The tendency to maintain emotional distance, to value independence and to avoid deep intimacy.
• The oscillation between the need for closeness and the fear of it, with unpredictable reactions in relationships.

How to read your score

The result reads as an intensity, not as a diagnosis:

• Fragile relational balance: Your attachment patterns show significant fragilities that affect the quality of your relationships.
• Developing relational balance: You have some solid foundations but also areas of fragility that deserve attention.
• Good relational balance: You show a generally good level of emotional security in your relationships, with a few points for improvement.
• Excellent relational balance: Your attachment style is essentially secure, allowing you to experience fulfilling and balanced relationships.
