Self-Esteem Test

Measure your level of self-esteem and self-worth using questions inspired by the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, one of psychology's most validated tools.

Personality & Behaviour

Self-Esteem Test

Self-esteem refers to how we evaluate and feel about ourselves. It encompasses feelings of self-worth, confidence, and self-acceptance. The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (1965) is one of the most widely used measures of self-esteem in psychology research worldwide. This test is inspired by that scale and measures both positive self-regard and absence of negative self-regard. Healthy self-esteem is associated with better mental health, stronger relationships, and greater life satisfaction.

About the Self-Esteem Test

This free screening takes about 3 min and includes 10 questions. Results are instant and stay on your device unless you choose to share them. It is an informal tool for self-reflection — not a diagnosis, licence, or medical report.

Score bands used on this page: Low Self-Esteem (0–12): Your responses suggest low self-esteem. You may frequently doubt your worth and abilities, which can limit your relationships, career, and wellbeing. Below Average Self-Esteem (13–22): You show below-average self-esteem. Self-doubt is present and may sometimes hold you back from opportunities and close relationships. Average Self-Esteem (23–32): Your self-esteem is in the average range. You have a reasonably positive self-view with some areas of self-doubt. High Self-Esteem (33–40): Your responses indicate high self-esteem. You have a strong, stable sense of your own worth and value.

How to use your results in real life

Read the matched band and any insights or recommendations on the results screen first. If a score suggests a concern (mood, attention, sleep, or safety), talk with a GP or qualified clinician — bring a screenshot of your results as a conversation starter.

For skill-style quizzes (memory, focus, reasoning), pair this questionnaire with the interactive brain games on this site: reaction time, digit span, Stroop, and the Full Brain Test give timed practice that questionnaires cannot.

Retake after meaningful change — better sleep, a new routine, or therapy — not every day. Frequent retests mostly measure mood-of-the-moment noise.

Accuracy and limitations

This test is designed for entertainment and self-reflection purposes. Results are not clinically validated and should not be used as a substitute for professional assessment.

Self-report tools can under- or over-estimate symptoms depending on insight, culture, and stress that day. They are best as a structured checklist, not a verdict.

If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, contact local emergency services or a crisis line immediately — do not wait on a quiz score.
