It measures internet-reference fluency, the urge to keep checking, and how much online content affects mood, plans, and everyday conversation. Scores are reported by scale to support interpretation of specific patterns.
How long does it take and how many questions are included?
It takes about 10 minutes to complete. It includes 15 questions.
Is this a clinical or diagnostic assessment?
No; results are reflective and not designed for diagnosis, treatment decisions, or risk screening. If online habits cause significant distress or impairment, professional evaluation may be appropriate.
