Psychological Quadrant

For example, family members, cousins, and very close friends.  These are the people who are closest to you in your life.  Include pets, objects, and deceased significant others.

Write down the names of these individuals and describe their relationship to you.  Rate each person on the two scales listed beside each name.  The first scale represents how close you are to each person.  For the second scale, place yourself in the shoes of each person selected and estimate how close each person thinks they are to you.  The rating of 1 on the scales indicates extreme closeness, while a rating of 7 indicates extreme distance.  There is no limit to the number of people you may list.
