⚠️ Disclaimer

1. ❌ Not a Clinical Diagnosis

The screening tools available on PsychSelfTest — including the Autism Test, ADHD Test, IQ Test, and MBTI Personality Test — are educational self-assessment tools only. They are explicitly not clinical diagnostic instruments and cannot be used as the basis for any clinical diagnosis.

A positive or high-scoring result on any of our tests does not mean you have autism, ADHD, a specific IQ level, or any other psychological or medical condition. Similarly, a negative or low-scoring result does not mean you do not have a condition — many conditions are underdiagnosed even by formal instruments, let alone educational screening tools.

2. 🏥 Not Medical or Professional Advice

Nothing on PsychSelfTest — including test questions, scoring systems, result descriptions, educational articles, or any other content — constitutes medical advice, psychological advice, psychiatric advice, or any other form of professional healthcare advice.

The content on this website is intended for general educational and informational purposes only. It should not be used to:

• Self-diagnose any condition or disorder
• Replace a consultation with a qualified healthcare professional
• Make healthcare decisions without professional guidance
• Determine whether medication, therapy, or other treatment is appropriate
• Provide diagnoses or assessments to other people, including family members or children

Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional for any questions you may have regarding a medical or psychological condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on PsychSelfTest.

3. 📊 Test Accuracy and Limitations

Our screening tools are inspired by validated psychological instruments and frameworks. However, they are not themselves validated or standardised clinical tests. Their accuracy is subject to the following limitations:

• Self-report bias: All results depend on the honesty and self-awareness of the person answering. People often answer how they think they should feel, rather than how they actually feel.
• Lack of clinical norming: Our tests are not standardised against a representative clinical population in a controlled research setting.
• Snapshot results: Mental health, cognition, and personality are dynamic. A test taken on a bad day, during stress, or under other unusual circumstances may not reflect your typical profile.
• Cultural and linguistic factors: Our tests are written in English and developed with Western psychological frameworks in mind. Results may not translate equally across all cultural contexts.
• Co-occurring conditions: Many psychological conditions share overlapping symptoms. Our tests screen for specific traits and cannot distinguish between conditions that present similarly.
• Age appropriateness: Child-focused versions of our tests are designed for parent completion and are appropriate screening tools only, not diagnostic replacements for specialist paediatric assessment.
