WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Suggestibility Scale Test

suggestibility

This brief self-report measure is designed to assess an individual’s susceptibility to external influence. The Suggestibility Scale provides a structured snapshot of how readily a person endorses or adopts suggestions in everyday contexts.

The instrument includes 20 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Items are presented as statements for the respondent to rate, yielding a summary indicator of suggestibility that may inform clinical formulation, case conceptualization, or research screening when interpretation is integrated with other sources of information.

The Suggestibility Scale is attributed to G. H. Gudjonsson.
