Rated 4.8/5 by Our Customers
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.

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!

Surprisingly accurate — honestly didn’t expect it to nail things so well.

There are lots of different tests to pick from, and the price is surprisingly low for how much insight you get.

CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions

Any questions left?

What does this assessment measure?
It measures the intensity of intrapersonal conflict and identifies the main sources of internal contradictions. It also indicates which domains produce the strongest emotional distress.
Which types of conflict are evaluated?
It differentiates motivational, moral, role-related, adaptive, unrealized desire, and inadequate self-esteem conflicts. Scores reflect relative intensity across these conflict types.
How long does it take and how many items are included?
Completion time is approximately 7 minutes. The assessment includes 36 items.
How should responses be selected?
Select the response that best reflects typical thoughts, motives, and reactions rather than a single unusual event. Answer all items using first impressions and avoid overanalyzing.
How should the results be interpreted?
Results provide an overall conflict level and separate indicators that highlight specific “pain points,” such as motivation, perceived obligations, or self-esteem. Scores are screening indicators and should be interpreted with other clinical or coaching information.
WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Test for Determining the Level of Intrapersonal Conflict

Intrapersonal Conflict Level Assessment Test

This self-report measure is designed to screen for perceived internal contradictions and distress associated with competing motives, values, and self-evaluations. The Intrapersonal Conflict Level Assessment provides a structured way to identify areas of intrapsychic tension that may be clinically relevant. It is attributed to Leon Festinger.

The instrument contains 36 items and typically takes about 7 minutes to complete. Item content samples common domains of internal conflict (e.g., competing goals, moral or role-based tensions, adaptation to external demands, unmet desires, and self-evaluative discrepancies). Scores are generally interpreted as indicators of overall conflict intensity and the relative prominence of specific conflict themes, which may help guide clinical formulation and treatment planning. The Intrapersonal Conflict Level Assessment is intended to complement, not replace, a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation.
