This test is based on the DSM’s diagnostic criteria of Passive-aggressive Personality Disorder (PAPD). This online self-test covers the main indicators of this behavioral disturbance. Being passive aggressive may sometimes be a simple isolated adverse reaction to a specific situation. However, when being passive aggressive is a consistent adverse reaction, it would then be classified as the specific personality disorder (PAPD), which is recognized within the standard classification of mental disorders. As a general rule, people with passive-aggressive personality don’t usually get involved in direct fights, but opt to indirectly express their hostility. There is a constant covert aggression which harms and disrupts their relationships. If you think that you frequently behave in a passive-aggressive way, take this test to assess yourself. The results will reveal whether you need further examination and counseling, so as to improve the quality of your interpersonal relationships. If you already are undergoing therapy, we would advise that you use this test to regularly track your progress during the treatment phase.
This test covers all the main symptoms of paranoid personality disorder. However, as any other self-reported test, it does not replace proper professional assessment. If your score indicates that, you have a probability of having a paranoid personality disorder, but proper mental health assessment does not find any, it means that the test is mistaken in your case and provided a false positive result.
