Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ-7) Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure assesses the extent to which an individual becomes entangled with thoughts and experiences them as literal truths rather than transient mental events. The Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ-7) is commonly used to index cognitive fusion, a construct relevant to psychological flexibility.
The measure contains 7 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Respondents rate agreement with statements reflecting the degree to which thoughts dominate attention, behavior, and self-appraisal. Higher scores generally indicate greater cognitive fusion and may be monitored over time as part of clinical formulation and treatment progress.
