16-TYPE INDICATOR

Personality Type

The classic four-letter map. Twelve questions across four preference pairs, then a star chart, strengths, and career directions built from your result.

12 QUESTIONS · 5 MIN
IPIP-50

Big Five

The most validated model in personality psychology. Places you on five independent spectrums rather than sorting you into a box.

50 QUESTIONS · 7 MIN
O*NET RIASEC

Career Interests

Rate sixty real work activities to find your Holland Code and the kinds of work most likely to hold your interest.

60 ACTIVITIES · 8 MIN
ECR-R

Attachment Style

How you bond, seek closeness, and handle distance in relationships, measured on the anxiety and avoidance dimensions.

36 STATEMENTS · 5 MIN
IPIP-BASED MAPPING

DISC Style

A practical read on your communication style at work, translated from validated Big Five scores rather than an unvalidated DISC questionnaire.

50 QUESTIONS · 7 MIN
OEPS

Enneagram

Nine core types organised around a central desire and fear. A reflection framework rather than a research instrument — and the page says so.

36 STATEMENTS · 6 MIN
O*NET WORK IMPORTANCE LOCATOR

Work Values

Sort twenty statements about your ideal job into five levels of importance. Not what you enjoy doing — what a job has to give you before you would call it a good one.

20 CARDS · 6 MIN
SHORT-FORM IPIP-VIA

Character Strengths

Ninety-six statements across the twenty-four character strengths, grouped under six virtues. Finds which strengths sit at the top of your profile — not what you are good at, but what you are like.

96 QUESTIONS · 12 MIN
SCHUTTE SSEIT + WONG & LAW

Emotional Intelligence

Two published emotional-intelligence scales, scored side by side and never merged. One overall reading, four facets, and no EQ percentile — because neither scale has norms that would support one.

49 QUESTIONS · 8 MIN
STERNBERG TLS-15

Triangular Love

Sternberg's three components of love — intimacy, passion, and commitment — measured for one relationship. You get the shape of your triangle and the type it maps to, with no love score and no compatibility percentage.

15 QUESTIONS · 3 MIN
DUTCH CONFLICT HANDLING

Conflict Style

The five ways people handle disagreement at work — problem solving, compromising, forcing, yielding, and avoiding — from a published scale whose items you can actually check. Not the TKI, and not a hiring tool.

20 QUESTIONS · 4 MIN
SD4 SHORT DARK TETRAD

Dark Personality Traits

The three Dark Triad traits plus the fourth one the same author added, on a scale he placed in the public domain. Reported with his own feedback labels, compared to the one sample it has figures for, and never as a diagnosis.

28 QUESTIONS · 5 MIN
RMEQ (REDUCED MEQ)

Chronotype

Lark, owl, or neither, on the five-item short form of the standard research measure of body-clock timing. Free in full — no paid report, nothing withheld.

5 QUESTIONS · 2 MIN

Which one should you take first?

If you want the most scientifically defensible picture of your personality, start with the Big Five. If you are deciding what to do for work, start with career interests. If you want the familiar four-letter type and a shareable star chart, start with the personality type test.

The assessments are independent and deliberately not combined into a single score. Completed results collect in your local profile, where you can compare sessions over time.
