Find out in 5 minutes what drives your relationships and how to improve them.

Close relationships are the foundation of our emotional well-being. However, many people find themselves repeating the same patterns in love and partnership without understanding why. This test is based on the Relationship Scales Questionnaire (RSQ), a scientifically validated instrument rooted in the attachment theory of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth . unlike surveys that focus on a single partner, this test asks you to reflect on your general experience across all your close relationships—past and present. The questions help you identify your underlying patterns regarding intimacy, independence, and trust. At the end, you will receive a personal evaluation of your attachment style and insights on how to build more secure connections.

The 4 Attachment Styles in Psychology

The RSQ test determines your attachment profile based on two main dimensions: Attachment Anxiety (worry about whether others are available) and Attachment Avoidance (discomfort with emotional closeness). Here is what defines the four types according to the scientific model.

1. The Secure Attachment Style: You feel comfortable with intimacy and find it easy to trust others without losing your own sense of independence. You generally don't worry about being abandoned and have a deep-seated belief that others will be there for you when it matters.

2. The Preoccupied (Anxious) Attachment Style: You often crave more emotional closeness than your partner or friends are comfortable giving, which can leave you feeling insecure. Deep down, you frequently worry that others don't value you as much as you value them, leading to a fear of rejection.

3. The Dismissing-Avoidant Attachment Style: You prize your self-reliance above all else and often feel that depending on others is a sign of weakness or risk. When people try to get too emotionally close, you tend to pull away to protect your freedom and keep feelings at a distance.

4. The Fearful-Avoidant Attachment Style: You have a strong desire for connection, but you are terrified of getting hurt or rejected if you truly open up. This leads to a difficult inner conflict where you seek closeness but then instinctively retreat as soon as things get serious.
