Yes. It's built on Caryl Rusbult's investment model of commitment (1980, 1983), one of the most replicated frameworks in relationship science, though this test uses original item wording rather than the copyrighted Investment Model Scale itself.
Satisfaction is how rewarding the relationship feels day to day. Quality of Alternatives is how appealing life outside the relationship looks, whether or not you'd act on it. Investment Size is what you've put in, time, shared resources, disclosed history, that would be lost if it ended.
Yes, and it's one of the more useful things this test can surface. Heavy investment or a lack of appealing alternatives can each independently prop up commitment even when day-to-day satisfaction is low, which is different from a relationship that's working well on every front.
No. This is a self-reflection snapshot of where the three bases currently sit, not a relationship-health diagnosis or a recommendation to stay or leave. A low score, especially early in a relationship, often just means investment hasn't had time to build yet.

The Relationship Commitment Test measures commitment the way relationship science actually studies it: not as a single feeling, but as the outcome of three separate, measurable forces. It's built on Caryl Rusbult's investment model (1980, 1983), one of the most replicated frameworks in the field, and uses fully original item wording rather than the copyrighted Investment Model Scale.
Through 21 questions, this test scores your Satisfaction (how rewarding the relationship feels day to day), Quality of Alternatives (how appealing life outside it looks), and Investment Size (what you've put in that would be lost if it ended). Those three combine into a total commitment score and a 5-tier profile, from Fragile to All In, because the same total can mean very different things depending on which base is doing the work.
