About this test
A 20-item self-report quiz that maps you to one of four procrastination archetypes drawn from published research on procrastination (Steel 2007; Sirois 2014). Each archetype is measured by 5 items on a 5-point Likert scale. The point isn't to label you — it's to identify the actual mechanism behind your delay so you can fix the right thing.
Methodology
20 self-report items (5 per procrastinator type) on a 5-point Likert scale. Inspired by published procrastination research (Steel 2007; Sirois 2014). The four-archetype framing is a synthesis, not a single official instrument.
