Hyperactivity & Impulsivity Test (ADHD) for Adults
63 questions·10 min·4 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 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 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
Hyperactivity & Impulsivity Test (ADHD) for Adults — a 63-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): an interpretation 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 interactive test covers the body, tension, movement, speaking, listening, regret, stimulation, novelty and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example The body If, at a table, your feet tap out a beat and your fingers drum without your meaning to. If, in front of a film, your body shifts position from start to finish. Tension If a tension rises in your legs and pushes you to move while you're trying to keep calm. If, in the evening on your sofa, your body stays tense and struggles to relax. Movement If you need a workout or a long walk to feel good in your own skin. If, during a long car or train journey, your body demands to move in the seat. Speaking If you hog the floor in a discussion, without leaving enough room for others. If you blurt out an answer before the question is fully asked. Listening If an idea comes to you while the person in front of you is talking and you cut in to get it in. If, when someone tells a long story, you slip in your comments before the story ends. Regret If, in the evening, you regret words you let slip during the day without thinking. If you blurt out a remark out loud when you meant to keep it to yourself. Stimulation If, as soon as a moment turns quiet, your hand reaches for your phone. If sorting the mail or filling in a spreadsheet weighs on you from the very first lines. Novelty If you walk into an unfamiliar place or accept a last-minute outing on the spot. If you lose interest in an activity as soon as it becomes familiar or mastered. Readiness to change If what you've just described weighs on your daily life. If you want to change the way you function day to day.
