WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Love and Friendship Test

Love and Friendship Test

This measure is intended to support a brief self-report screening of interpersonal feelings and attitudes in close relationships. The Love and Friendship Test is commonly described as a quick questionnaire that can be used to facilitate discussion of relational patterns and perceived emotional connection. Rubin is cited in association with this instrument.

The measure includes 18 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Item content is generally oriented toward perceptions of closeness, affection, and friendship-related sentiments, and results are best interpreted as descriptive indicators rather than diagnostic conclusions.

In clinical or counseling contexts, the Love and Friendship Test may be used to structure conversation about relationship functioning, clarify themes relevant to treatment goals, and identify areas that warrant further assessment with validated measures and clinical interview.
