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.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Tolerance Index Test

Tolerance Index Test

This self-report measure is designed to assess openness and respectful attitudes toward diverse groups. The Tolerance Index is typically used to obtain a brief profile of tolerance-related attitudes and dispositions.

The instrument consists of 22 items and takes about 5 minutes to complete. It is commonly described as covering multiple domains, including attitudes toward ethnic groups, broader social groups and norms, and tolerance as a general personality-related tendency. Authors are cited as G. W. Allport, T. F. Pettigrew, and S. H. Schwartz.

In applied settings, the Tolerance Index may be used to support screening and discussion of interpersonal attitudes and areas where bias, discomfort, or rigidity could affect interaction. Results are generally interpreted as an overview of relative strengths and potential areas for further assessment or intervention, rather than a stand-alone diagnostic indicator.
