Psychological self-test

You know the rules. The question is what you do with them.

Conflicts, white lies, broken agreements — everyone has those. It gets interesting when they turn into a pattern. This self-test, based on the Vanderbilt screening, shows you across four dimensions where your behavior is clearly within bounds — and where it’s starting to cost you.

  • Your profile across four dimensions: aggression, destruction, deceitfulness, and rule violations
  • An honest assessment instead of a snap verdict — with examples from your everyday life
  • Concrete starting points for turning a pattern back into a choice

Sound familiar?

From the inside, a lot of it feels like a string of one-off incidents. From the outside, the pattern is plain to see — and that’s exactly what this test makes visible.

The yelling comes first, the thinking comes later

One remark, one look, and you hit your boiling point. Afterward, you can’t quite say why it escalated so fast — only that it wasn’t the first time.

Rules feel more like suggestions to you

Agreements, regulations, prohibitions: for other people, those are boundaries; for you, they’re more of an opening bid. Most of the time it works out. But the price creeps up.

The shortcut through a lie

An excuse here, a dodged obligation there — not out of malice, but because it’s the path of least resistance. Until the trust around you starts wearing thin.

People are keeping their distance

Coworkers get cautious, friends reach out less often, there’s tension in the air at home. You couldn’t even say when it started — from the inside, it’s the hardest thing to see.

The four dimensions of your profile

Social behavior isn’t a yes-or-no question — it’s a pattern made up of four areas. Your results show each dimension on its own, because a high score in deceitfulness tells a completely different story than one in aggression.

Aggressive vs. Peaceful

How quickly does anger turn into confrontation — verbal or physical? This dimension measures whether you resolve conflicts or escalate them, and what role intimidation plays in your repertoire.

Destructive vs. Careful

What happens to things when you’re angry? This is about how you treat property — from careless damage to deliberate destruction.

Deceptive vs. Honest

Lies, excuses, taking what isn’t yours: this dimension shows how often you bend the truth to dodge trouble or gain an advantage — and what that costs you in credibility.

Defiant vs. Compliant

Obligations, agreements, prohibitions: this is where you see how binding rules really are for you — and whether crossing the line is your exception or your system.

Grounded in research, not pop psychology

The test is based on the conduct disorder screener from the NICHQ Vanderbilt Assessment — an established screening instrument that systematically covers the core features of conduct disorder. The four areas match the classic symptom clusters: aggression toward others, destruction of property, deceitfulness and theft, and serious rule violations.

Our version captures these 14 features as a self-assessment on a 7-point scale. That makes the results far more nuanced than a simple yes-no grid: you don’t just see whether a behavior occurs, but how strongly it shapes your pattern — for each dimension individually.

To be as clear as possible: this test is a tool for self-reflection, not a diagnosis. Only a qualified professional can diagnose conduct disorder in a personal consultation. What the test does deliver: it makes a pattern visible and gives you a solid foundation — for working on it yourself, or for a professional conversation.

This test is a screening and self-reflection tool, not a diagnostic instrument. Conduct disorder can only be diagnosed by physicians or licensed psychotherapists. If your behavior is seriously harming you or others, please reach out to a mental-health professional or a local crisis line.

The test follows the conduct disorder screener from the NICHQ Vanderbilt Assessment and covers all four classic symptom areas. But the deciding factor is you: the results are only as solid as your answers are honest. Answer the way you actually behave — not the way that would look good.

No. A high score means your response pattern shows many of the features the test asks about — nothing more. Only a qualified professional can make a diagnosis. Treat a striking result as a reason to take a closer look, not as a verdict.

Anyone who wants an honest read on their own behavior — say, because conflicts keep piling up or the people around them are giving pointed feedback. Every question is phrased as a self-assessment: you rate your own behavior, and nobody else gets judged.

Yes. You don’t need an account to take the test, and your results can only be reached through your personal link. Especially with a topic this sensitive, you alone decide who gets to see them.

Four dimensions. Three minutes. One honest look.

Find out where your behavior is clearly within bounds — and where a pattern begins that costs you more than it gives you.
