The Dynamic Relationship Coaching Questionnaire that follows was
devised by Daniel Eckstein Ph.D. and published as the "#1 Priority
Questionnaire" in "The Family Journal", October 2002.
It is designed to help you and those you work and live with to understand
your interactions more profoundly. It will reveal the way in which
you are each predisposed to approach the world and the people in your
life.
The order of priorities revealed by the questionnaire is unlikely
to change much over your lifetime. However, the intensity and rigidity
of their impact can be hugely modified through Dynamic Relationship
Coaching.
Take the test and have your partner(s) take the test as well. Then
visit "DRC PPA Test: Background" for an explanation of your findings.
The questionnaire consists of twenty personal statements. Use the drop-down
box with each question to select your choice of how closely that statement
applies to you. The scale runs from 0, not at all true, to 5, absolutely
true.
When you've answered all the questions, hit the "Submit"
button. A new page will appear with your results. Be sure to record
these as your original answers will be lost during the calculation.
