The S5F Assessment is a comprehensive dimensional instrument designed to identify and differentiate schizoid personality patterns. Unlike simple screening tools, this assessment captures the internal heterogeneity within the schizoid population, revealing the different "flavors" or subtypes that exist under this common umbrella.
Diminished capacity to experience pleasure and reduced motivational pull of rewards
Reduced desire for, investment in, and engagement with interpersonal relationships
Narrowed range of emotional experience and expression
Preferential engagement with the internal world of thought, fantasy, and imagination
Distinctive stance toward one's own existence, identity, and relationship to the social world
The assessment consists of 168 statements rated on a seven-point scale from "Strongly Disagree" to "Strongly Agree". It includes 145 items measuring the five core schizoid domains, plus 23 discriminant validity items to help differentiate schizoid patterns from avoidant personality, autism spectrum, and depression. Most participants complete the test in 20-30 minutes.
