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.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
J. Grotevant's Identity Status Interview, ISRI Test

Identity Stage Resolution Index (ISRI) Test

This brief self-report measure is designed to screen for identity development status, with an emphasis on adult and social aspects of identity. The Identity Stage Resolution Index (ISRI) can be used as an initial indicator of how consolidated an individual’s identity commitments and self-definition appear in relation to common developmental models.

The instrument includes 6 items and typically requires about 2 minutes to complete. It may be used in counseling, clinical intake, or group settings to inform case formulation and guide follow-up assessment; results should be interpreted in context and not used as a stand-alone diagnostic determination.

The Identity Stage Resolution Index (ISRI) is commonly attributed to Côté and is conceptually aligned with identity status frameworks.
