Flow is a state of complete absorption; individuals feel focused and challenged, nearly losing themselves in time and space. This test is designed to assess if you have reached a flow state during a given activity; take it with a certain experience in mind—for example an athletic activity, art project, or intellectual exercise.
This test is for anyone who wants to explore their ability to enter a flow state. It’s designed for adults and is not intended to be prescriptive.
If you think you’d benefit from discussing your concentration, goals, or challenges with a professional, finding a therapist may be beneficial. Search for one in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory.
