This self-report measure is designed to clarify interpersonal preferences for giving and receiving affection in close relationships. The Love Language Test uses paired-choice items to identify which expressions of care the respondent tends to value most. It is attributed to Susan S. Hendrick and Clyde Hendrick.
The instrument includes 30 items and typically takes about 20 minutes to complete. Responses are organized into five domains commonly described as acts of service, words of affirmation, quality time, gift giving, and physical touch, yielding domain scores that can be compared to indicate relative priorities. Results from the Love Language Test are generally interpreted descriptively to support discussion of relationship expectations and communication patterns.
