Map Your Sensory Sensitivity, Free 15-Question Profile
Take the free sensory sensitivity profile test. 15 questions mapping your sensory processing across 4 quadrants: Low Registration, Sensation Seeking, Sensory Sensitivity, and Sensation Avoiding. Grounded in established sensory processing research. Instant results with workplace recommendations.
What is the Sensory Sensitivity Profile?
The Sensory Sensitivity Profile maps how your nervous system processes sensory input across four quadrants drawn from established sensory processing research. Everyone processes sensory information differently — some people miss signals (Low Registration), some actively seek stimulation (Sensation Seeking), some are easily overwhelmed (Sensory Sensitivity), and some actively avoid overload (Sensation Avoiding). Understanding your pattern is crucial for work environment design, stress management, and self-regulation.

Sensory processing differences are a core feature of autism (DSM-5 criterion B4) and are common in ADHD. But sensory patterns exist in everyone — this test is useful whether or not you're neurodivergent. Your results include workplace-specific recommendations.
No single quadrant is better or worse — each carries trade-offs. A high Sensation Seeking score can mean you stay energised in busy environments that drain other people; a high Sensory Sensitivity score often comes with noticing subtle detail others miss entirely. The point of mapping your profile is not to fix a flaw but to design your day around how your nervous system actually works — which rooms you choose, when you step away to reset, and which inputs you turn down or add on purpose.
