Pattern Inventories · Series IV

When you get activated,
what do you actually do?

Four self-report instruments covering the survival response you default to, the communication patterns that show up in conflict, the strategy you use to handle disagreement, and the regulation capacity you can access while it's happening.

Disclaimer

Not a diagnostic or clinical instrument. These four inventories are educational self-reflection tools. They describe tendencies you report about yourself; they do not identify, diagnose, screen for, or rule out any mental-health condition, disorder, or impairment, and a high or low score is not a clinical finding.

Not clinically validated or normed. The inventories are modeled on published research frameworks but have not been validated, normed, or tested for reliability in any human sample. The reliability figures shown are from computer simulation of the item structure only and do not describe performance with real respondents. Results have no established predictive, diagnostic, or comparative meaning.

Not professional advice, and no substitute for it. Nothing here is medical, psychological, psychiatric, or therapeutic advice, and use of these tools creates no therapist–client, clinician–patient, or other professional relationship. For any concern about your mental health, relationships, or safety, consult a qualified, licensed professional. If you may be in crisis or at risk of harm, contact your local emergency services or a crisis line in your area.

Your results and privacy. Everything you answer stays in your browser; this page has no server and sends nothing on its own. The "Keep your results" option opens your own email app with your results written into the message — you decide whether to send it. If you tick "Also send a copy to Evolution Lab Collective," your results and the email address you send from will go to that organization as well; leave it unticked to keep your results to yourself.

Use at your own discretion. The inventories are provided "as is," without warranty of any kind. The author accepts no liability for any decision made or action taken in reliance on them. The underlying frameworks remain the intellectual property of their respective authors; all items here are original wordings written independently and are not reproductions of any published scale.
