Online Test: Meditation-Screening

This questionnaire offers a scientifically grounded first orientation about what your meditation practice has set in motion. It does not replace a thorough assessment – persistent or burdensome meditation experiences can be captured in far greater detail in a personal conversation, for instance using the Meditation Experiences Interview (MedEx-I). Even so, the questionnaire can be a valuable basis for making sense of challenging experiences rather than passing over them or interpreting them prematurely. In counselling practice it is used to separate frequency from burden, to convey the range of possible effects of meditation, and to develop first starting points for adjusting the practice.
