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.

Possible archetypes

Perfectionist · Polish-it-to-death: You've never started — you've only "researched". We both know it.
Thrill-Seeker · Deadline athlete: You only start when the building's on fire. And you call it a strategy.
Avoider · Allergic to starting: Your inbox is a minefield and your kitchen has never been cleaner.
Dreamer · 14-tabs-no-output: You started 12 projects this year and finished a Pinterest board.
