Separation Anxiety Test: what it measures and how to interpret your score

In brief : Separation anxiety is not limited to children: it can persist or emerge in adulthood.

Separation anxiety is not limited to children: it can persist or emerge in adulthood. It is characterized by excessive and persistent fear of being separated from people to whom one is attached. This test evaluates three essential dimensions: distress experienced during separations, worry about losing a loved one, and emotional dependency behaviors. The results will help you better understand your relationship with attachment.

What the test measures

• Intensity of emotional and physical suffering during separation.
• Excessive fear that something bad will happen to a loved one or that they will disappear.
• Excessive need for the presence and approval of attachment figures.

How to interpret your score

Your result reads as an intensity, not a diagnosis:

• Low separation anxiety : Your level of separation anxiety is low. You manage separations well and maintain healthy and secure attachment with your loved ones.
• Moderate separation anxiety : You show signs of moderate separation anxiety. Separations affect you more than average and may influence your decisions.
• High separation anxiety : Your separation anxiety is significantly elevated. Fear of separation and loss impacts your daily life and life choices. Therapeutic support is recommended.
• Very high separation anxiety : Your separation anxiety is very high and constitutes a major source of suffering. Specialized therapeutic follow-up is strongly recommended to regain greater autonomy.
