No. This quiz is a self-assessment tool designed to increase awareness of workplace attachment tendencies. It is not a clinical diagnosis. If you have concerns about attachment-related distress affecting your mental health or work functioning, consult a licensed mental health professional.
Use your results to create targeted, practical steps: practice clear communication, set and maintain healthy boundaries, schedule regular check-ins with colleagues, or work on self-soothing techniques. Leaders can use results to adapt management style; employees can bring insights to coaching or HR development plans.
The quiz offers a general, evidence-informed snapshot of tendencies in workplace contexts. Its accuracy depends on honest self-reflection and consistent responses. For deeper or more formal assessment, consider validated psychological measures or professional evaluation.
