Adult and sensitive content
The full checklist is intended for adults aged 18 and over and includes explicit topics. You may leave any item unchecked, exit the test, or delete saved checks. An unchecked item is scored the same whether the experience did not occur or you preferred not to answer.
What the question is asking
Item 62 asks whether you have had your heart broken. Like item 61 it describes something that happened to you rather than something you did, which makes it one of the items least suited to a checklist framed around transgression.
Where people disagree about what counts
The threshold is entirely personal. A short relationship ending badly can be genuine heartbreak and a long one ending amicably may not be. Most takers treat the item as satisfied by any breakup that caused lasting distress.
The test is self-scored and nobody else ever sees your answer, so the only thing that matters is applying one reading consistently across the whole checklist.
How item 62 fits with the items around it
Items 62 and 63 are a matched pair written from each side — having your heart broken and breaking someone else's — in exactly the same way items 64 and 65 split cheating into the two roles. That symmetry is the defining feature of the emotional run.
How it affects the score
Every question has the same one-point effect. Checking item 62 subtracts one point from the starting score of 100. Leaving it unchecked subtracts nothing, and no item on the checklist is weighted more heavily than any other.
Final score = 100 − total checked boxes
The final number never identifies this answer or any other individual answer — it is a count, so it discards which items were selected the moment it is calculated. Read the full scoring guide or look up an exact result on the 0–100 score chart.
