Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ-R) — Psychoticism, Extraversion & Neuroticism Test

The EPQ-R (Eysenck Personality Questionnaire - Revised) measures three primary personality dimensions: psychoticism (impulsivity, nonconformity), extraversion (sociability, activity), and neuroticism (emotional instability, anxiety). This quiz provides a simplified, self-report snapshot of these traits to help with self-awareness and personal development.

Each question contributes a numeric value to one of the three scales. Scores on each scale are summed to produce a range (in this version 0–8 per scale). Higher scores indicate a stronger expression of that trait. The provided results include practical interpretation ranges (low, moderate, high) and recommendations.

No. This online EPQ-R-style quiz is a screening and self-insight tool for personality traits. It is not a clinical diagnostic instrument. If your results indicate significant distress or problematic behavior, consult a licensed mental health professional for a full assessment.

This concise EPQ-R-style quiz contains 12 items and typically takes 3–7 minutes to complete, depending on how much time you spend reflecting on each question.

Retake the test after you have actively worked on specific strategies (for example, 6–12 weeks after beginning stress management, social skills practice, or therapy) to track meaningful changes. Frequent retakes without intervention are unlikely to show meaningful difference.

Yes — EPQ-R results can inform career choices by highlighting strengths and preferences. For example, high extraversion may fit client-facing roles, while lower extraversion may suit solitary or detail-focused work. Use results alongside skills, values, and experience when considering career decisions.

High neuroticism suggests focusing on stress-reduction techniques (CBT, mindfulness, exercise, sleep hygiene) and seeking professional support if anxiety interferes with daily life. High psychoticism — especially if it includes aggressive or antisocial behaviors — may benefit from counseling, anger-management strategies, and channels for constructive risk-taking.
