Test for tendency toward physical risk

5 minutes

Are you a risk-taking individual? How willing are you to endure losses for potential success? The test for tendency toward physical risk allows you to assess your level of risk-taking in the domain of somatic (physical) safety.

Evaluating your level of risk-taking is important in everyday life and when choosing a profession and workplace. For instance, a person who carefully guards themselves against the slightest physical harm is unlikely to become a rescuer, firefighter, climber, electrician, or doctor.

The full version of the test consists of three parts:

You can fill out either one of the tests or all three.

A person who is risk-prone in one area does not necessarily have to be risk-prone in another: a cautious financial analyst may be an adventurous biker or an imprudent playboy. However, in comparison to others, individuals are generally ranked at approximately the same level on the risk-taking scale – some are more risk-prone, while others are more cautious. Risk-taking is a fairly stable personality trait, although it manifests differently in various areas of life.

The test is designed for quick self-assessment and can be used for express diagnostics by psychologists, psychotherapists, and recruiters. The test consists of 20 statements, each with three answer options.
