Valentine’s Scale
The test is called ‘Valentine’s Scale.’ It’s by Stockholms Universitet. The quiz has seven statements with multiple-choice options to answer. The statements evaluate each of the fundamental pillars of a relationship, like trust, emotional connection and conflict resolution. The test is out of 21 points. It’s not time-consuming and can be finished quickly.

Per Carlbring, one of the researchers behind the test said, “This scale makes it possible to quickly and efficiently get an idea of how a relationship is doing, without having to go through long and complicated interviews or questionnaires.”
What does your score mean?
As per a Daily Mail report, scoring a perfect 21 indicates an exceptionally high level of relationship satisfaction. Researchers even describe this as an ideal relationship.
On the other hand, a score of 0 suggests a very low level of relationship satisfaction.
However, if your score falls on the lower end, there’s no need to panic or overreact. Researchers emphasize that this can be a perfect opportunity for open communication with your partner.
Professor Carlbring said, “If the test result raises concerns, it may be a good idea to talk about what lies behind the answers.”
Relationships are ever-evolving, so there’s always a chance of improvement, and open communication is the adequate tool for that.
