Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure is used to screen for patterns commonly associated with codependent relating in close relationships. The Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale provides a structured way to identify interpersonal tendencies that may warrant further clinical assessment.
The instrument includes 14 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete. Respondents rate statements reflecting habitual beliefs, emotions, and behaviors in relationships, supporting an initial estimate of codependency-related features. When interpreted in context, results from the Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale may help guide case formulation and treatment planning (Melody Beattie).
