Take Our Simple Quiz to Learn More!

How Did You Score?

You're done! You can calculate your score on this quiz by giving yourself zero points for each "A" answer, one point for each "B" answer and two points for each "C" answer.

If you scored 0-4 it is unlikely that you possess the characteristics of someone with needle phobia.

If you scored 5-8 you seem to share some of the tendencies of those clinically diagnosed with needle phobia. Speak with your doctor to learn more about whether you suffer from this condition.

If you scored 9 or 10 it is quite likely that you have some form of needle phobia. Talk with your doctor to find out for sure whether you suffer from this psychological condition.

Questions based on information gathered from Needle Phobia: A Neglected Diagnosis, Journal of Family Practice, Aug. 8, 1995, authored by Dr. James Hamilton.
