WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Subjective Picture of an Individual's Life Path Test

Subjective Representation of the Individual Life Path Test

This measure is designed to support a structured discussion of a person’s perceived life narrative and how they organize meaning around lived experiences. Subjective Representation of the Individual Life Path provides a brief, standardized way to elicit the individual’s perspective on salient life events, themes, and personal significance (Dan P. McAdams; Robert A. Emmons). It consists of 60 items and typically takes about 11 minutes to complete.

Item content focuses on how respondents subjectively interpret their past and anticipated future, including what they view as pivotal experiences and the meanings attached to them. Results from Subjective Representation of the Individual Life Path may be used to inform case conceptualization, guide therapeutic exploration of values and identity themes, and clarify patterns in perceived continuity, agency, and life direction. Interpretation should be integrated with clinical interview data and other assessment information, rather than used in isolation.
