QUICK ANSWER

The Anger and Impulsivity Test is a 60-question self-assessment measuring 4 key dimensions. A test of dispositional anger (frequency, threshold, expression, recovery), inspired by the STAXI and the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire. After completing it you get an instant overview, then a detailed PDF report (1,99 €): scores per dimension, a radar chart, 11 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. This tool is for self-knowledge and does not replace a professional consultation.

About this test

This test assesses a dispositional tendency toward disproportionate angry outbursts and low frustration tolerance, inspired by the State-Trait Anger model (STAXI, Spielberger) and the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire (1992): frequency and intensity of outbursts, trigger threshold, mode of expression (verbal, physical), recovery and regret. Anger is a NORMAL emotion; this test measures neither dangerousness nor 'intermittent explosive disorder' (which requires clinical evaluation). Good news: CBT anger management is well proven.

Dimensions assessed

  • Frequency and intensity- How often anger outbursts occur and how intense they feel.
  • Frustration threshold- How easily a setback triggers anger.
  • Mode of expression- How anger is expressed: shouting, hurtful words, gestures, objects.
  • Recovery and regret- Time to come down after anger, possible shame or regret.

Why take this test?

Personal development relies on deep self-knowledge: your values, emotional intelligence, resilience, and self-confidence. Assessing these dimensions gives you a clear roadmap for growth and achieving your life goals.

The Anger and Impulsivity Test specifically evaluates 4 key dimensions: Frequency and intensity, Frustration threshold, Mode of expression, Recovery and regret. With 60 carefully crafted questions, it provides a detailed and nuanced picture of your psychological profile in this area. The test takes approximately 8 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 Anger and Impulsivity 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.

In front of a screen or notification

Checking reflexes, endless scrolling, losing track of time, difficulty stopping even when you decided to.

Facing a strong emotion

Immediate reaction without pause: regretted message, impulsive purchase, food intake, words beyond your intent.

In daily self-regulation

Ability to tolerate waiting, emptiness, boredom, frustration without immediately filling it with stimulation.

After the impulse

What happens in the hour or day that follows: relief, guilt, shame, promises, quick return to the same pattern.

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

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 Anger and Impulsivity 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.
