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 88 asks whether you have trespassed — been somewhere you did not have permission to be. It is the broadest item in the legal category and covers a very wide range, from cutting across a fenced field to entering an abandoned building.

Where people disagree about what counts

The breadth makes it inconsistently answered. Read strictly, walking across a neighbour's lawn is trespass; read as most takers do, the item means deliberately entering somewhere you knew you were not allowed. The checklist gives no threshold.

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 88 fits with the items around it

Item 88 is the general case that item 87 is a specific instance of, and it opens the property run at 88 to 90 — trespass, theft, and damage. Those three cover the standard categories of minor property offence.

How it affects the score

Every question has the same one-point effect. Checking item 88 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.

Questions about item 88

Strictly it can, but most takers read the item as deliberately entering somewhere you knew was off limits.

Does exploring an abandoned building count?

Yes, under any reading. Entering a building without permission is the clearest case the item describes.

How does item 88 relate to item 87?

Item 87 is a specific kind of trespass — a pool or hot tub after hours. Item 88 is the general case.
