Sexual Dimensions Personality Test
The Sexual Dimensions Personality Test (or “Sexy Seven” Test) was developed David P. Schmitt, Ph.D. and David M. Buss, Ph.D. to measure differences in personality on seven sex-specific dimensions. Using statistical analysis, Schmitt and Buss discovered seven scales pertaining to human sexuality, all of which displayed moderate to high levels of validity and correlated well with the scientific “Big Five” system of personality.
What are your sexual dimensions? For each of the following items, indicate how well it describes you below.

The Sexual Dimensions of Personality Test is a scientific and statistically validated instrument for measuring gender stereotypes and adversarial heterosexual beliefs in the general population. The Sexual Dimensions of Personality Test does not address all possible sexual attitudes and does not purport to be exhaustive. The Sexual Dimensions of Personality Test has repeatedly been shown to measure statistically significant differences in the sexual attitudes of men and women. The original research is by Schmitt and Buss is dated, yet other researchers have confirmed its findings. The statistical analyses informing the test are broadly agreed to be scientifically valid.
