Does work leave room for the rest of your life? This free test uses the six-item Workaholism scale from the public-domain CAT-PD Static Form to look at how much work takes up your time, attention and relationships. It takes about one minute and gives you a 1–5 average score with a personal read and practical next steps.

This result is for self-reflection only and is not a diagnosis. The six items are the Workaholism scale of the CAT-PD Static Form v1.1 (Simms et al., 2011), published through the public-domain International Personality Item Pool (IPIP). The Chinese translation is Treehole Hong Kong's own and has not been psychometrically validated. The scale has no clinical cut-offs; scores are continuous.
