This measure is designed to characterize how individuals organize their internal stream of thought, with attention to the form of inner speech and imagery. The Thought Flow Questionnaire samples common patterns of internal dialogue and monologue, including narrative self-talk and imagined interpersonal exchanges. It is a 29 items self-report instrument that typically takes about 6 minutes to complete.
Content focuses on qualitative features of internal communication and the vividness and frequency of mental imagery, including perceived changes under stress. The Thought Flow Questionnaire may be used to inform case formulation and to support research on cognitive style; it is not intended to serve as a standalone diagnostic tool.
