Science & Theory

The
Methodology

Our assessment isn't just another online personality quiz. It is a rigorously designed diagnostic tool rooted in decades of clinical psychology, specifically adult attachment theory.

Psychology

Based on Bowlby & Ainsworth's pioneering research.

Algorithm

Multi-dimensional scoring across anxiety and avoidance axes.

Validation

Scenario-based questions designed to bypass cognitive biases.

The Two Dimensions

Every person's attachment style is plotted on a graph consisting of two primary axes: Attachment Anxiety and Attachment Avoidance.

  • Attachment Anxiety: The degree to which you worry about your partner's availability, responsiveness, and attentiveness. High anxiety often manifests as a fear of abandonment or rejection.
  • Attachment Avoidance: The degree to which you rely on yourself versus others. High avoidance manifests as a discomfort with intimacy and a fierce defense of independence.

How We Calculate Your Persona

When you answer our scenario-based questions, you aren't just picking a "type." Our algorithm distributes weighted points across the four archetypes based on your emotional reflexes in high-stakes relational situations (e.g., conflict, distance, vulnerability). The resulting persona represents your dominant attachment strategy.
