How should items be answered?
Rate each statement based on how well it describes typical attitudes and behavior in close relationships. Answer all items using the same response scale without overthinking individual items.
How are results interpreted?
Scores are calculated for each love style and compared to identify relative strengths. Higher scores indicate stronger endorsement of the related pattern, not better relationship quality.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment

Love Styles Test - Symptoms and Signs

This self-report measure assesses individual differences in romantic attitudes and preferences. The Love Attitudes Scale (LAS) is commonly used in clinical and research settings to characterize how people conceptualize love and approach intimate relationships.

It consists of 42 items and typically requires about 8 minutes to complete. Responses are used to derive profile information across multiple love-style domains described in the underlying theoretical framework; results are generally interpreted as descriptive patterns rather than diagnostic indicators.

In practice, the Love Attitudes Scale (LAS) can help inform case conceptualization by clarifying relational expectations, attachment-related behaviors, and potential areas of mismatch within couples. Findings should be integrated with clinical interview data and other assessment sources when used to guide treatment planning.
