Hyperactivity & Impulsivity Test (ADHD) for Adults
64 questions·10 min·4 dimensions·up to 17 clinical frameworks·6 report sections
Good morning,
This test looks at hyperactivity and impulsivity in adults, where restlessness often shows up differently than in children: less in being unable to sit still than in an inner restlessness. It examines the need to move and what staying still costs, what slips out when speaking, and the amount of stimulation needed to stay alert. The report describes how this restlessness shows up, whether alone or with others, and since when.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 64 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book The Practical CBT Guide, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
Hyperactivity & Impulsivity Test (ADHD) for Adults — a 64-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test looks at hyperactivity and impulsivity in adults: motor restlessness, verbal impulsivity and the need for stimulation. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): your score on each of its 4 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 17 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This test covers physical activity, the body, tension, dialogue, speaking your mind, urges, listening, curiosity, frustration, plans, screens and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Physical activity If you find it hard to stay seated in situations where it is expected (meeting, class, cinema). If you can stay still and relaxed during a long trip without feeling the need to move. The body If you fidget with your hands or feet involuntarily when you are sitting. If, when you watch a film quietly, you manage to stay settled without constantly shifting position. Tension If you feel an internal tension that pushes you to move even when you try to stay calm. If you relax physically without trouble in the evening or during vacation. Dialogue If you monopolize conversations without leaving enough room for others. If, when someone tells a long story, you wait patiently for the end without jumping in. Speaking your mind If you say inappropriate or awkward things without being able to hold back. If you take time to think about your wording before giving your opinion in a debate. Urges If you cut in when an idea comes to you while someone is speaking. If you wait until others have finished speaking before stepping in. Listening If you ask a question while the person is still answering the previous one. If you let other people finish their sentences. Curiosity If you actively seek out new or unexpected situations to break the routine. If routine or predictable tasks do not particularly bore you. Frustration If you cope badly with a long wait without any distraction. If you cope well with quiet moments and periods of inactivity. Plans If, between a peaceful vacation and an unplanned road trip, you instinctively lean toward the unexpected. If you are easily content with a quiet weekend, without needing to plan busy activities. Screens If you check your phone or look for a distraction as soon as a moment turns quiet. If you seek out films, games or thrilling experiences rather than calm content. Readiness to change If the way you function has a real effect on your daily life. If you believe you are capable of growing in this area.

Why take this test?

The report describes how this restlessness shows up, whether alone or with others, and since when.
The questionnaire explores 3 areas: Motor Restlessness, Verbal Impulsivity, Need for Stimulation. Your answers support reflection, not a diagnosis. A separate module explores readiness to change; it is not another trait of the model presented.
