Scientific Methodology
The test was developed based on the book 'Love and Limerence: The Experience of Being in Love' (1979) and subsequent research on romantic obsession. It measures 4 key components of limerence: intrusive thoughts, fear of rejection, hope for reciprocity, and emotional dependence.
This test is based on Dorothy Tennov's research, who studied the phenomenon of limerence for over 10 years, conducting interviews with hundreds of people. Limerence differs from healthy love in its intensity, obsessiveness, and often one-sidedness.
