    Example

    When a conversation gets heated, what usually happens to you?

    • I get louder and say things I regret
    • I go quiet and stop responding
    • I rush to calm things down

The eight dimensions

Eight skills. A clearer picture of your patterns.

Your RQ profile shows how you approach communication, trust, conflict, and other relationship skills, so you can see your strengths and where to focus next.

  • Developing32–52
  • Mixed53–70
  • Solid71–95

Scores come from your own answers about what you usually do. They describe you, not anyone else, and they aren’t a diagnosis or a prediction about a relationship. How scores work

Conflict & repair

Handling disagreement, and reconnecting afterwards.

What it can look like

“The argument ends, and nobody brings the problem up again.”

Say one thing that matters clearly, then leave room for a response.

Methodology

Built around relationship research.

RelationQ draws on established ideas about communication, emotional regulation, trust, and relationship patterns to help you reflect on how you relate to others.

Your RQ profile is a self-reflection tool, not a clinical diagnosis.

RQ is our own framework and hasn’t been independently validated. We use original items rather than copying validated questionnaires, and we don’t claim their validation as ours.

How your scores work

  • Why these eight skills?

    Each is something researchers have studied and linked to how relationships go, such as communication, handling emotions, conflict and trust, and each is something you can practise. Grouping them into eight, and the RQ scale itself, are RelationQ’s own.

  • How do my answers become scores?

    Everyone answers the same core questions about what they usually do in familiar moments. Each answer counts towards one or two skills, every skill is built from several answers, and the eight count equally. Questions about your situation shape your plan, never your RQ.

  • How is my focus chosen?

    Your focus is the skill with the most room to grow, because that is usually where a little practice makes the most difference first. In the app you can change it whenever you like.

  • How do my results shape my plan?

    Your plan picks practices for your focus and your situation, and leaves out what doesn’t fit where you are. Practices about an ex, for example, only appear after a breakup.

  • What should I take from my scores?

    How you tend to respond right now, from your own answers. A score isn’t a diagnosis, a measure of anyone else, or a prediction about a relationship, and it can change as you practise.

Three of the studies behind the skills

  1. 01

    Relationship satisfaction is measurable, and short scales track it as well as long ones.

    Funk & Rogge (2007), Couples Satisfaction Index

    doi:10.1037/0893-3200.21.4.572
  2. 02

    Interpersonal competence separates into distinct skills (initiation, disclosure, conflict management) rather than one general ability.

    Buhrmester et al. (1988), Interpersonal Competence Questionnaire

    doi:10.1037/0022-3514.55.6.991
  3. 03

    Perceived partner responsiveness predicts relationship outcomes independently of satisfaction.

    Crasta et al. (2021), Perceived Responsiveness and Insensitivity Scale

    doi:10.1037/pas0000986
  • Private by default

    Your answers are never sold or used for ads.

  • No pressure to keep up

    No streaks to protect. Miss a day and you lose nothing.

  • Your decisions stay yours

    RelationQ won’t tell you whether to stay, leave or get back together. It helps you see the pattern, whatever you decide.

  • Safety comes first

    If your answers suggest you may not be safe, we stop and point you to people trained to help. Abuse is never treated as a communication problem.

Your progress

See how your patterns change.

Progress isn’t always a big breakthrough. Sometimes it’s recognizing a trigger sooner, speaking up more clearly, or handling a difficult moment differently.

Use your Journey to reflect on the steps you’ve taken and notice what changes over time.

  • Your roadmap

    Five chapters for your focus. You move on when you look back and choose to, never because time passed.

  • Everything you’ve done

    Check-ins, practices, lessons and journal entries, newest first.

  • Your week and month

    How many check-ins and practices, and the minutes you spent.

  • Your eight skills

    Retake the assessment, and what grew since your first one is named for each skill.
