WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Urgent Addiction Assessment Test

addiction workaholism urgent addiction

This measure evaluates a pattern of urgency-focused, potentially addictive behavior characterized by persistent time pressure, fear of being late or failing, and a preference for high-intensity “last-minute” demands. The Urgent Addiction Assessment is a self-report questionnaire intended to help clarify the degree to which urgency and time scarcity are experienced as chronic, driving states.

It includes 44 items and typically takes about 9 minutes to complete. Respondents rate experiences and behaviors related to working in an “urgent” mode, difficulty relaxing during unstructured time, and internal tension linked to perceived time shortage; results may support clinical formulation and treatment planning when stress, anxiety, and overcommitment are prominent.

The Urgent Addiction Assessment was originally developed by N. Tassi and may be used as an adjunct to a broader assessment that considers occupational demands, coping style, and comorbid symptoms.
