Rated 4.8/5 by Our Customers
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.
Mateo R., CA
Reading each question felt like someone really understood me. Even though I’ve already dealt with much of this, reflecting still helped me learn something new about myself.
Caroline F., US
The process is simple. The test covers everything you need, and you’ll get a clear breakdown of your results. For just a few dollars, it’s a great value.
Klara N., CZ
I kept thinking there might be a small chance, but now I know for sure. The questions were easy to understand, and the whole process was straightforward.
Bruno M., BR
I really enjoyed this experience. I learned a lot, and it helped me make sense of my thoughts and the feeling I’ve had for a long time that I may have grown up with undiagnosed ADHD.
Alice B., FR
Great platform — the insights were genuinely meaningful!
Daniel W., DE
Everything was easy to follow. The tools you get at the end are genuinely helpful for self-growth, and the price is very reasonable. I really appreciate that.

Surprisingly accurate — honestly didn’t expect it to nail things so well.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Conditions and Techniques of Persuasion Test

Persuasion Conditions and Techniques Test

This brief self-report measure, Persuasion Conditions and Techniques, is designed to assess perceived conditions and strategies individuals may use to influence others in conversation. It focuses on communication-related techniques and contextual factors that may shape persuasive interactions.

The instrument includes 8 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Items can be used to characterize an individual’s endorsed approaches to persuasion and may support discussion of interpersonal communication patterns in clinical, coaching, or educational contexts. Authors: Richard E. Petty and John T. Cacioppo.

Persuasion Conditions and Techniques is intended for screening and reflective purposes and should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical information (e.g., interview data and relevant behavioral observations), rather than as a stand-alone indicator of functioning or diagnosis.
