Self-assessment
Cyber Pornography Use Inventory (CPUI-9)
Nine statements rated from 1 to 7. You receive a total from 9 to 63 and three subscales: perceived compulsivity, access efforts and emotional distress.
Who this questionnaire is for
Useful if pornography use feels hard to control, takes priority over other things, or leaves you with shame or low mood.
9 questions, about 2 minutes. Your answers stay in your browser: nothing is saved or sent, and no name or email is needed.
The CPUI-9 has no official diagnostic cut-off; the ranges shown are descriptive guides. A high distress score alone can reflect personal values rather than compulsivity.
The result is for self-awareness only. It is a screening reflection, not a clinical diagnosis. Grubbs, Volk, Exline & Pargament (2015). Internet pornography use: perceived addiction, psychological distress, and the validation of a brief measure (CPUI-9).
