Extreme Demand Avoidance Questionnaire (EDAQ)

Normative and Psychometric Statistics
DEVELOPING N=72 α=0.898 23Countries

Extreme Demand Avoidance Questionnaire (EDAQ) normative dataset currently contains 72 participant records collected between Jun 12, 2026 and Aug 1, 2026 .

This psychometric dataset currently includes 72 anonymous participant responses collected through voluntary participation. The observed mean score was 44.94 with a standard deviation of 18.3, indicating moderate score variability within the sampled population. Internal consistency reliability analysis demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach alpha = 0.898). Observed skewness (0.03) and kurtosis (-0.25) were examined as indicators of distribution quality. The score distribution appeared reasonably balanced and did not suggest substantial departures from normality.

Item–Total Correlations
Insufficient Sample Size

Item–total correlations are not currently reported because the assessment has fewer than 100 participant responses. Psychometric item analysis requires a larger sample to produce stable and interpretable estimates.

Current Participants: 72
Minimum Recommended: 100

Normative Data Notice

A total of 72 participant responses were available for this assessment. Dimension-level norms were calculated using 72 valid response records. Approximately 0 response record(s) were excluded from dimension-level normative calculations due to incomplete response patterns.

Limitations

Normative statistics are derived from voluntary participation and may not represent all populations. Reliability estimates, percentile norms, and dimension statistics should be interpreted in the context of the current sample and may change as additional responses are collected.
