    Do I have BDD?
    Take the test

    This test was developed by BDD


    specialists as an inital screening to
    understand whether someone might
    have Body Dysmorphic Disorder.

    This questionnaire has two main uses.

    1. It can be used as a screening questionnaire to tell


    whether you might have BDD.
    2. The questionnaire can also be used as a measure of
    the severity of your symptoms so you can use it
    before and after any treatment and provide feedback
    on whether your symptoms have improved or not.
    The questionnaire comprises of just 9 items. The
    range is 0-72 where 72 is the most severe.

    Your assessment

    COPS - Do I have BDD?

    You scored 36 out of the maximum total of 72.


     
    Higher scores reflect greater distress and interference
    in your life and the likelihood of a diagnosis of BDD.
     
    If you scored 40 or more, we would recommend that
    you seek an assessment, as you are likely to have BDD.
     
    If you scored between 30 and 40, you may still have
    BDD and may still benefit from an assessment.
     
    You are unlikely to have BDD if you scored below 30.
     
    You can repeat the questionnaire at any time during
    treatment to see if there any changes in your
    symptoms.

    Thank you

    Before you take the test, it’s important


    that you note that:

    Only a trained health professional can


    make a diagnosis of BDD, although the
    questionnaire can help guide you and
    your health professional.
    The questionnaire assumes that you do
    NOT have a disfigurement or a defect
    that is easily noticeable. The judgment
    on how noticeable your feature(s) can
    be made by a health professional.
