Method

Transparent self-report checklist; not a validated diagnostic or prediction

Before you use this template

  • • A self-report checklist, not a validated scale or prediction. Each 1–5 answer maps to 0, 25, 50, 75, or 100. The lowest dimension suggests the first step; ties follow question order.
  • • The server computes the result after accepting the completed response. Missing, skipped, invalid, or incorrectly mapped ratings produce no scored result.
  • • Review wording and settings before publishing. Embed collection requires a published survey and an approved parent origin. Preview questions contain no collected responses.
