WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Experiencing Social Exclusion, PSI Test

Social Exclusion Experience Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs

social alienation

This measure assesses perceived experiences of being ignored, rejected, or left out in close interpersonal contexts. The Social Exclusion Experience Scale is intended to capture the subjective intensity and emotional impact of exclusion within dyads or small groups.

It consists of 10 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Items ask respondents to rate how strongly they experience exclusion-related situations, supporting a brief appraisal of perceived social exclusion that may inform clinical formulation or research hypotheses. The Social Exclusion Experience Scale was developed by K. D. Williams.
