Reviewed by Gildas Garrec, CBT practitioner
Good morning,
This test is about avoidant traits through several aspects: the holding back when faced with a new social situation, the sense of not measuring up to others, the attention trained on the smallest sign of disapproval, and the desire for connection that persists underneath the avoidance. The report locates the moment the decision to pull out is taken, often well before the situation itself.
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 63 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book Avoidant Attachment, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.
If you have a question about your report, write to us at contact@psychologieetserenite.com: a psychotherapist will reply within 48 hours.
I'd also suggest analysing your conversation with ScanMyLove; it's a complementary tool that, from your exchanges as partners, sheds light on your relationship dynamics.

QUICK ANSWER
Avoiding other people — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test looks at avoidant traits: social inhibition, feelings of inadequacy, sensitivity to rejection and a thwarted desire for connection. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): an interpretation of its 5 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 interactive test covers avoidance, withdrawal, speaking up, what others think, rejection, judgment, self-esteem, confidence, loneliness, isolation, meeting someone, projects, procrastination and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Avoidance Whether you find an excuse to cancel an outing at the last minute. Whether you say yes to an outing suggested that same morning, without hesitating for long. Withdrawal Whether, at a party where you know few people, you stay near the buffet and say little. Whether you walk into an unfamiliar group and start a conversation from the very first evening. Speaking up Whether, in a group, you stay silent for fear of being judged when you would have something to say. Whether, around a table where a shared project is being discussed, you take your place and hold it. What others think Whether you turn down an invitation or an offer for fear of how others will see you. Whether, when a tournament or a workshop is organized in your neighborhood, you sign up. Rejection Whether a message left unanswered all day makes you think of rejection. Whether you stay calm when someone close doesn't get in touch all day. Judgment Whether you reread a message you've received, searching it for a trace of disapproval. Whether you take a critical remark about something you did without taking it personally. Self-esteem Whether you dread the day people will see you're worth less than you let on. Whether you feel proud of a finished task, even a very small one. Confidence Whether, even after strong praise for something you did, you doubt you're up to the task. Whether, faced with what life asks of you, you feel up to it. Loneliness Whether a day off on your own, with no one to see, weighs on you deeply. Whether the circle of people you spend time with is enough for you and suits you. Isolation Whether you suffer from your empty evenings and turn down the invitations that would fill them. Whether you truly prefer your evenings alone, and other people's company leaves you indifferent. Meeting someone Whether you would like to meet someone, and the fear of rejection makes you close the app. Whether, when you're attracted to someone, you suggest a coffee without holding back. Projects Whether, faced with a new activity that appeals to you, you tell yourself you're not up to it. Whether you get over criticism you receive in front of other people quickly, without dwelling on it. Procrastination Whether the fear of criticism makes you put off what you want to start. Whether, when you feel like it, you go and talk to someone without fear stopping you. Readiness to change Whether what you've just described weighs on your life and your relationships. Whether you want to change the way you function day to day.
