SAMPLE QUESTIONS
Example Questions From the Test
Read each statement and choose how often it reflects the way you usually think and act. There are no right or wrong answers and nothing here judges your worth as a person. Answer for how you are in practice, not how you think you should be, and move without dwelling too long: the first reaction is usually the most accurate. Some statements are deliberately worded the other way round, so they are worth reading carefully.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Kindness Test - Symptoms and Signs
What is your kindness like when nobody applauds it and it costs you something? This free 45-statement inventory does not measure what you know about kindness but how you usually behave: whether you register what is happening for the other person, whether you turn intention into concrete acts, whether you can say no without guilt, how you treat yourself when you get things wrong, and how easily you let a grievance go. Answer how often each statement fits you and you will get a profile across five facets, with its strengths and its points of strain. No sign-up, in about nine minutes.
Author: Carter, P., Russell, K.
Literature: The five facets of this inventory draw on models widely used in research on empathy and prosocial behaviour: Davis, M. H. (1983), Interpersonal Reactivity Index; Carlo, G. and Randall, B. A. (2002), Prosocial Tendencies Measure; Helgeson, V. S. and Fritz, H. L. (1998), Unmitigated Communion Scale; Neff, K. D. (2003), Self-Compassion Scale; Thompson, L. Y. et al. (2005), Heartland Forgiveness Scale. The questionnaire itself is Freudly's own work, informed by those frameworks, and is intended as a self-observation tool rather than a diagnostic test.
