McGill Friendship Questionnaire

The McGill Friendship Questionnaire is used to assess the quality of friendships by evaluating emotional closeness, companionship, and support within relationships. It provides insights into how friendships impact emotional well-being and helps identify strengths and areas for improvement in social connections.

The McGill Friendship Questionnaire is scored on a nine-point Likert scale, where respondents indicate their level of agreement or frequency for each statement. Higher scores indicate stronger, more positive friendship qualities, while lower scores may highlight areas that could benefit from attention or support.

The Friendship Function Scale, part of the McGill Friendship Questionnaire, measures specific roles a friend fulfills, such as providing companionship, support, and emotional security. It assesses how well friends meet these functions, contributing to a fuller understanding of friendship quality.
