Narcissistic Traits Test: Screen for Narcissistic Personality
64 questions·10 min·5 dimensions·5 report sections
Good morning,
This test is about narcissistic traits through four aspects: the sense of standing above, the need to be recognized in order to stay standing, the difficulty of taking account of what others are going through, and the sensitivity to shame that the front covers over. The report describes these traits and the way they combine — in particular the lack of empathy and the vulnerability, which often go together.
The report opens with a synthesis of what your answers bring out, then analyzes each of the 5 dimensions of the test: what it describes of a way of functioning, and how they answer one another. It sheds light on those answers through clinical reading frameworks, and offers leads to bring alongside what you live. It closes with an action plan over three horizons: what you can try this week, what takes a month, what takes longer. The detail of your answers, question by question, is attached as an appendix.
The test runs over 64 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
I'd also suggest reading the book I authored, The Practical CBT Guide, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.
