The Relationship Assessment Scale (RAS) provides a concise snapshot of how satisfied you feel in your romantic partnership. It distils key aspects—needs fulfilment, commitment, and perceived quality—into one easy-to-read score.

You answer seven statements using a five-point response scale ranging from “Not at all” to “Very much”. One item is reverse-scored to correct for negative wording, ensuring balanced measurement.

Use the result to open conversation, track changes over time, or decide whether professional guidance could help. Scores reflect self-perception and may shift with mood. Results do not constitute a clinical diagnosis or professional advice.

Technical Details:

The tool converts each response to a numeric value, corrects the sixth item by inversion, sums the adjusted scores, and divides by seven to yield an average between 1 and 5.

  • Five-point Likert scale ensures comparable intervals.
  • Reverse coding prevents response bias.
  • Numeric average enables quick percentile mapping.
  • Colour-coded gauge highlights satisfaction range.

Calculations & Scoring:

This section shows exactly how your average score is produced.

Total of adjusted responses divided by seven produces the final mean.

v6=2
s6=6−v6=4

Subtract the raw response from 6 to align its meaning with the other items.

4+5+4+3+5+4+4
T=29

Sum produces the total satisfaction score.

29 / 7
4.14

Division normalises the score to a 1–5 range.

Calculated average = 4.14, placing you in the “Very Satisfied” range.
