Welcome. This is a free online test for measuring personality and attachment style. The tests are based on recent scientific works (Wei et al 2007; Rammstedt & John 2007).

The tests are part of a research program to analize attachment style and social network usage. The system compares your public Twitter data to the results of the tests. Your answers will be recorded in an anonymous way and possibly used for research, personal data will be treated in absolute respect of the privacy law.

Responding quickly, without thinking too much, this test takes about 2 minutes. Your participation in this assessment is for strictly educational purposes, it is not clinically administered and so is not suitable for making medical decisions.
