Schizotypal Traits Test: What It Measures and How to Read Your Score

This test assesses schizotypal TRAITS on a continuum present in the general population, inspired by the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (Raine, 1991) and the PID-5: magical thinking and ideas of reference, unusual perceptual experiences, social withdrawal and anhedonia, eccentricity of speech. Schizotypy is a measurable trait, NOT a disorder and NOT an individualised psychotic risk. Some people search for this as a "schizotypal personality disorder test" — this test does not screen for schizophrenia or for any psychotic disorder. Only a professional can assess the clinical significance of these traits.

In the article that follows, I explore personality types. If you recognise yourself in this theme, I designed a 16 personality types test that helps you take stock of your personality profile. It comes with a guide to extend your reflection beyond the results. I also wrote a book on this subject, The Practical CBT Guide, if you would like to go further.

What the test measures

• Unusual beliefs, superstition, the feeling that ordinary events carry personal meaning.
• Mild sensory distortions, illusions, atypical bodily sensations.
• Low interest in close relationships, blunted social pleasure.
• A way of speaking, thinking or presenting yourself that is perceived as original or offbeat.

Take the test: Schizoid Personality → — If what resonates most is low interest in close relationships and blunted social pleasure, the schizoid personality test explores that relational withdrawal in a more targeted way.

How to read your score

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

• Barely marked traits: The traits measured are low or balanced; they do not strongly structure your functioning.
• Moderate traits: Moderate traits emerge across the dimensions.
• Marked traits: Clear traits stand out and colour your functioning.
• Highly marked traits (non-diagnostic signposting): Dominant traits emerge. This test makes no diagnosis: only a professional can, after a full clinical assessment.
