Freudly really helped me discover parts of my personality I hadn’t noticed before. It strengthened the areas where I needed to grow and made me feel more grounded and confident in the parts that already worked well.
Emma C., US
I wanted to understand how serious my ADHD is, and now I finally do. I also realized I need to work on my self-esteem. It has been low for a long time, and that makes daily life harder than it should be.

Academic Interest and Self-Esteem Test

Learning Interest and Academic Self-Esteem Test

This brief self-report measure is designed to screen students’ learning-related interest and perceived academic competence across common school subjects. Learning Interest and Academic Self-Esteem can be administered in group or individual settings and is typically appropriate for use in educational or school-based psychological contexts (Morris Rosenberg).

The instrument includes 24 items and takes about 5 minutes to complete. Items are intended to capture the student’s interest in learning and confidence in academic performance, supporting identification of areas where motivation or self-evaluation may be comparatively low.

Results from Learning Interest and Academic Self-Esteem may be used to inform educational planning, guide targeted supports, and monitor change over time (e.g., following instructional interventions), alongside other clinical, educational, and contextual information.
