Freudly really helped me discover parts of my personality I hadn’t noticed before. It strengthened the areas where I needed to grow and made me feel more grounded and confident in the parts that already worked well.
Emma C., US
I wanted to understand how serious my ADHD is, and now I finally do. I also realized I need to work on my self-esteem. It has been low for a long time, and that makes daily life harder than it should be.
Mateo R., CA
Reading each question felt like someone really understood me. Even though I’ve already dealt with much of this, reflecting still helped me learn something new about myself.
Caroline F., US

Great platform — the insights were genuinely meaningful!

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Responsibility: Then/Now, ORS Test

Responsibility: Past/Present Test

This measure evaluates self-reported responsibility across two time frames, comparing perceived past and current patterns. Responsibility: Past/Present is designed to support a brief assessment of how an individual views changes in handling duties and follow-through.

The instrument includes 20 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. It may be used in educational or counseling contexts to inform discussions about self-discipline, accountability, and perceived behavioral change over time, and to guide goal setting or progress monitoring. Development is attributed to Julian B. Rotter. In interpretation, Responsibility: Past/Present results are best considered alongside collateral information and other assessment data, given the limitations of retrospective self-report.
