Personality Boundary Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This self-report measure assesses perceived patterns of psychological boundaries, including how individuals manage personal space and regulate contact with internal experiences and the external environment. The Personality Boundary Scale provides a structured snapshot of boundary-related functioning that may be relevant to clinical formulation and treatment planning. It is attributed to Ernest R. Hilgard.
The instrument includes 48 items and typically requires about 9 minutes to complete. Results from the Personality Boundary Scale are generally interpreted as descriptive indicators of boundary management style and may be used to support discussion of interpersonal functioning and self-regulation within an appropriate clinical context.
