Does this sound familiar?
A feeling of living 'on autopilot', without knowing why
Former goals and plans no longer inspire you — a loss of grounding
An inner conflict between 'should' and 'want'
You can't bring into your life what truly matters
Uncertainty and anxiety when thinking about the future
The question 'am I in the right place, with the right people?' comes up more and more often
What is this test
The full research version of the meaning-crisis questionnaire — 103 statements about thoughts, feelings, life goals and everyday actions
Author's methodology
The meaning-crisis questionnaire by K. V. Karpinsky assesses the intensity of experiences and behavioural manifestations related to a crisis of meaning.
103 statements
Statements about thoughts, feelings, life goals and everyday actions. For each one you choose one of four answer options.
20–25 minutes
The test is taken online in your ConsultBuro platform account — at your own pace.
Personal result
After completion, the platform calculates the overall score and immediately shows its interpretation.
The result is not a diagnosis and does not determine a person's worth, profession or life path. You will see how the question of life's meaning is currently experienced — whether there is a sense of uncertainty, loss of grounding, inner conflict or difficulty bringing what matters into your life.
