What can these questionnaires help you understand?
Doubts about a relationship can be part of everyday life. These questionnaires explore whether doubts are accompanied by repeated checking, comparisons or a search for reassurance – and how much space these patterns take up in your life.
The ROCI asks about doubts concerning your feelings for your partner, your partner’s feelings for you, and whether the relationship feels right. The PROCSI asks about repeated preoccupation with perceived flaws in your partner, such as appearance, intelligence or personality characteristics.
Your feedback can help you put these experiences into words and see which patterns are most prominent in your answers. Five additional questions about distress and daily functioning help place the score in the context of your life. Together, this can provide a starting point for a conversation with a professional. The questionnaires do not diagnose ROCD, assess your partner, or tell you whether to stay in or leave a relationship.
Understand the pattern, rather than test the relationship. These self-report tools can support a conversation with a qualified professional. They do not diagnose ROCD or decide whether a relationship is right.
Each questionnaire has its own score. Five separate questions about time, distress and functioning help put the result in context. Those extra questions are not a validated severity scale and do not change the questionnaire score.
Research, scoring and privacy
The ROCI and PROCSI were developed by Guy Doron, Danny Derby, Ohad Szepsenwol and Dahlia Talmor (2012). The original English statements and scoring key are retained. Feedback and the separate daily-impact questions are digital additions.
The research references cited by the ROCD Research Unit describe scores greater than 21 (ROCI) and greater than 17 (PROCSI), based on work on the Italian versions. This page prompts consideration of assessment at 21 or more and 17 or more, respectively, and describes equality separately. These are not universal diagnostic thresholds for this English online format.
The self-check does not ask for identifying details. Your answers and scores are calculated only in temporary browser memory inside an isolated frame. They are not sent to us, stored on our servers or in a database, shared with analytics or a clinic, or used for research. We do not keep a copy and cannot retrieve your results. You can print your feedback or save a PDF on your own device before leaving. Reloading or leaving the page, or clearing the tool, removes its answers. External links do not include your answers or score. The surrounding website and external app websites may still record ordinary visits and use their own cookie tools.
