Emotional detachment and solitude
63 questions·10 min·5 dimensions and a separate readiness-to-change module·up to 17 clinical frameworks·6 report sections
Reviewed by Gildas Garrec, CBT practitioner
Good morning,
This test is about schizoid traits through four aspects: how rarely emotion is expressed, the deliberate choice of solitude, the indifference to opinions and social expectation, and the space a private inner life occupies. The report tells a withdrawal that is chosen apart from one that is merely settled for.
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 The Practical CBT Guide, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
Emotional detachment and solitude — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test looks at schizoid traits through four aspects. The report tells a chosen withdrawal apart from one merely settled for. 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 test is about schizoid traits and follows the DSM-5 description across four aspects. Emotional detachment: how rarely, and how faintly, emotion is expressed, and how little pleasure exchanges bring. Preference for solitude: the deliberate choice of doing things alone, family included. Social indifference: the slight interest taken in other people's opinions, norms and expectations. The inner world: the richness of a private imaginative and intellectual life. Each sits somewhere on a continuum, and the report distinguishes a withdrawal you chose from one you arrived at by giving up.
About this test
▼
Dimensions assessed
- ●Your reading of this distance- The way you explain this preference for solitude, before the test tells you anything about it. This section measures no difficulty and produces no level: it captures a starting reading, and none of the four proposed answers is more correct than another. Your answer is picked up and discussed in the section of the report devoted to you.
- ●Emotional Detachment- Restricted emotions, apparent coldness, difficulty expressing or experiencing intense emotions.
- ●Preference for Solitude- Deliberate choice of isolation, little interest in close or intimate relationships.
- ●Social Indifference- Lack of interest in social activities, insensitivity to both praise and criticism.
- ●Inner World- Rich fantasy life, marked introspection, detachment from social reality in favor of an internal universe.
- ●Readiness to Change- Measures your current readiness to acknowledge the impact of this topic on your life and engage in a process of growth.
