CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Any questions left?

What does this questionnaire measure?

It measures the intensity and direction of reflection across two areas: attention to internal experiences and reflection on social interactions.

What are the two scales in the results?

Self-reflection reflects the tendency to analyze thoughts, feelings, and motives. Socio-reflection reflects how a person considers their role and influence in interactions with others.

How long does it take and how many items are included?

Completion typically takes about 4 minutes. The questionnaire includes 20 items.

How should responses be selected?

Select the response that best matches typical behavior rather than a single recent event. Answer all items and avoid overthinking each choice.

How should the scores be interpreted?

Higher scores indicate stronger and more frequent reflective focus in the relevant area. Scores describe reflective style and are not a diagnosis or a measure of overall functioning.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Reflection Intensity and Orientation Scale Test

reflection

This measure assesses the intensity and orientation of reflective thinking, including how individuals attend to internal experiences and how they appraise themselves in social contexts. The Reflection Intensity and Orientation Scale is designed for brief administration and can be used in clinical, counseling, or research settings as a screening-level self-report instrument.

It includes 20 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Responses are used to characterize two broad domains of reflection (self-focused reflection and socially oriented reflection), supporting a structured summary of reflective tendencies rather than a diagnostic determination.

When interpreting results from the Reflection Intensity and Orientation Scale, clinicians should consider response style, current stressors, and the assessment context, and integrate findings with interview data and other measures as appropriate.
