Same remark, two responses: one person shrugs it off, another carries it for weeks. The Tendency for Interpersonal Victimhood (TIV) captures that difference — a stable tendency to feel like the victim across different kinds of relationships. This test uses the 22-item scale published by Gabay, Hameiri, Rubel-Lifschitz and Nadler (2020), covering four facets: how much you need acknowledgment and apology after being hurt, a sense of moral superiority where your kindness gets exploited, reading people who are upset with you as self-serving, and rumination over past injustices. You get a score for each facet plus an overall picture. 22 items, about 5 minutes.
