Bipolar Spectrum Self-Rating Scale (BSQ)

A 12-item bipolar-spectrum screening self-assessment for recent mood activation, irritability, depressive symptoms, and impulse-risk signals.

๐Ÿ“ 12 questions โฑ ~3 min

Background

BSQ is a short bipolar-spectrum self-rating screen. It focuses on recent mood activation, irritability, depressive symptoms, sleep and energy shifts, and impulse-risk signals that may appear in mood disorders.

Purpose of This Test

This online version is for self-awareness and early screening only. It cannot diagnose bipolar disorder, depression, mania, hypomania, or any mental-health condition. If your result is high, or if sleep, ๅฎ‰ๅ…จๆ„Ÿ, work, study, or relationships are affected, professional evaluation is recommended.

Four Screening Dimensions

The result observes mood symptoms from four practical angles

01Mood Activation

Elevated energy, less need for sleep, faster thoughts or speech, and unusually high drive.

02Irritability & Agitation

Anger, im่€ๅฟƒ, restlessness, agitation, and difficulty slowing down.

03Depressive Symptoms

Low mood, loss of interest, low energy, guilt, hopelessness, and difficulty functioning.

04Impulse & Risk Control

Impulsive decisions, risky behavior, unusually high confidence, or sharp mood shifts.

How This Test Works

You will answer 12 items, one per page with automatic advance. Each item is scored from 0 to 5. Total score ranges from 0 to 60: 0-14 is a low bipolar-spectrum signal, 15-24 is a watch range, and 25-60 is a high screening range.
