About this test

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.

Dimensions assessed

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

Why take this test?

Chronic anxiety and stress affect quality of life, sleep, relationships, and productivity. Accurately assessing your anxiety level helps distinguish normal stress from an anxiety disorder requiring care, and helps implement appropriate strategies.

The Separation Anxiety Test specifically evaluates 3 key dimensions: Separation distress, Fear of loss, Emotional dependency. With 60 carefully crafted questions, it provides a detailed and nuanced picture of your psychological profile in this area. The test takes approximately 12 min and can be completed at your own pace, from any device.

Whether you’re seeking personal development, considering therapy, or simply curious about yourself, this test gives you concrete and actionable results to move forward with confidence.

Daily-life situations this test explores

To help you picture what to expect before you start, here are the concrete contexts the Separation Anxiety Test sheds light on. This is not the list of questions (you discover them when you start the test) — it is the life situations it assesses.

Before an important meeting

Your thoughts in the hours before: negative scenarios, rumination, body symptoms, urge to control everything.

In the evening, at bedtime

Difficulty turning off your mind, anticipating tomorrow, fragmented sleep, night awakenings with invasive thoughts.

In transport or crowds

Body tension, urge to flee, suffocating feeling, heightened scanning of the environment, fear of losing control.

At any body signal

Heightened sensitivity to palpitations, a headache, a passing pain: fear of a hidden illness, repeated checks.

The actual questions are not shown here: you discover them when you start the test (free up to question 5).

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Separation Anxiety Test measure?

This test evaluates 3 psychological dimensions: Separation distress, Fear of loss, Emotional dependency. Each dimension is scored individually, giving you a detailed view of your profile rather than a single overall number.

How long does the Separation Anxiety Test take?

The test contains 60 questions and takes approximately 12 min to complete. You can answer at your own pace — your progress is automatically saved in your browser.

The test is anonymous and requires no registration. After completing it, you immediately see a preview of your results. The detailed PDF report (8-15 pages) with in-depth analysis, charts and personalized recommendations is available for €1.99.

Is this test scientifically validated?

This test is based on established models in clinical psychology and psychometrics. It evaluates 3 dimensions (Separation distress, Fear of loss, Emotional dependency...) using validated assessment scales. However, it is a self-assessment tool and does not replace a professional clinical diagnosis.

What does the PDF report contain?

Your Separation Anxiety Test report includes: your overall score with detailed interpretation, individual analysis of each of the 3 dimensions, a radar chart visualizing your profile, personalized recommendations for improvement, practical exercises, and additional resources.

Is my data kept confidential?

Absolutely. The test is 100% anonymous — no account creation, no email required. Your answers are stored only in your browser (localStorage) and are never sent to our servers until you purchase a report. All data is automatically deleted after 30 days.

Who is the Separation Anxiety Test for?

This test is designed for any adult wishing to better understand their functioning in this area, whether out of curiosity, as part of a self-knowledge journey or to prepare a conversation with a professional. It is not a clinical diagnostic tool and does not replace a specialist consultation.

Can I retake the test later?

Yes, you can retake the Separation Anxiety Test as many times as you wish. Some people take it again after several months to observe how their profile evolves. Each new attempt generates its own report — previous answers are not reused.

What should I do with my results?

Your report offers a clinical reading of your profile with concrete recommendations. You can use it as material for personal reflection, to open a conversation with someone close to you, or take it to a professional (psychologist, therapist, doctor) to enrich the consultation with a structured view of your dimensions.

Can people close to me also take it?

Yes. Each person gets their own anonymous, unique report, based on THEIR answers. Comparing profiles within a family or couple can be useful — provided each person takes the test honestly and on their own, without influencing one another during the answers.
