About this free test
What does this test explore?
Every friendship group develops an invisible structure. Someone creates plans, someone holds difficult stories, someone keeps the energy alive and someone remembers what the group has survived.
This test uses care, initiative, honesty, stability and playfulness to identify your most natural contribution. A role is not an obligation you must perform forever.

Use the pattern,
not the label.
Notice what friends receive from you and what you need returned. Strong circles do not depend on one person carrying every social function.
