Private partner responses
Each partner receives a separate link and answers the same questionnaire from their own viewpoint. The other partner's responses are not shown during completion.
A.R.E. Questionnaire for Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT)
The A.R.E. Questionnaire asks each partner how accessible, responsive, and engaged the other feels. Partners answer privately; practitioners review both reported perspectives together.
