How secure do you feel in relationships? – The scientifically validated attachment test
Attachment Test (ECR-G-10)
Attachment patterns often shape our lives more than we realize: how we experience closeness, whether we can rely on others, and how we regulate ourselves when things become overwhelming. These patterns are not weaknesses, but intelligent adaptations to the relationship experiences of our childhood—and they can be understood and changed.
My attachment test is based on the scientifically validated ECR-G-10 and takes only two to three minutes to assess the two central dimensions of attachment experience: attachment-related anxiety and attachment-related avoidance. Your results include both scores compared with the general population, clearly visualized on an attachment map with four orientation areas: secure, anxious, avoidant, and fearful-avoidant.
The test does not judge you or put you into a fixed category. It offers a snapshot of where you are: once you understand your pattern, many relationship situations suddenly make more sense—and you have already taken the first step toward change. Many of my clients use their results as a starting point for an initial consultation or as a basis for our work together in attachment-focused therapy.
Which themes keep repeating in your relationships? – Discover your core relationship pattern
Relationship Pattern Test (CCRT)
Does this feel familiar? Different people, different situations—and yet, in the end, a similar story keeps repeating itself. These recurring experiences are not random. They often follow an internal script that developed early in life and is repeatedly enacted in our relationships, usually without us noticing.
My Relationship Pattern Test makes this script visible. It is based on Lester Luborsky’s concept of the Core Conflictual Relationship Theme (CCRT) and explores three questions: What do I want most in relationships? What response do I expect or experience from others? And how do I respond in turn? From your answers, your central relationship theme emerges—the recurring thread running through your relationship experiences.
Once you recognize your pattern, you can begin to interrupt it before it plays out again—and find words for something that may previously have felt only vague or difficult to grasp. The test is an ideal complement to the attachment test: while the attachment test shows how you experience attachment, the Relationship Pattern Test shows which themes tend to repeat within it. Together, the two provide a remarkably clear picture and a valuable basis for therapeutic exploration.
What you needed – the five qualities of secure attachment in childhood
Attachment Resources Test
Secure attachment does not develop by chance. Children need five core experiences: protection and safety, being truly seen, comfort when things become overwhelming, genuine delight in who they are, and encouragement to explore the world. When these experiences are missing, inner expectations can develop that continue to shape us throughout life, often without our awareness.
This test invites you to look back with care. You first identify your most important caregivers, rank them, and estimate how present they were in your everyday life. Not all caregivers have the same influence: the most formative person is usually the one you turned to when you were afraid or needed comfort. Other caregivers can compensate for a great deal, especially when they were genuinely present. The scoring reflects this.
Your results provide a personal profile of the five qualities: what was available, what was missing, and what other people may have been able to compensate for. You also receive a guide to where new experiences today may have the greatest impact—because early expectations are learned, and therefore can change. The aim is not to assign blame, but to understand: caregivers usually pass on much of what they themselves received. Completion time: approximately 8–12 minutes.
