BEFORE YOU BEGINA few things
A few things
worth knowing.
Is the test really free?
Yes. All 40 questions, your full scores, explanations, result card, and basic PDF printing are free. No email or account is required. An optional $6.99 personal report adds a detailed reading of your answers and a reflection workbook.
How should I answer the questions?
Think about your usual behavior over the last few months, rather than your ideal self or a single unusual day. Choose the middle response when a statement only sometimes describes you. You can go back and change answers before viewing your result.
Is this a scientifically validated test?
No. This is an original self-reflection questionnaire. The question set, score thresholds, and interpretation rules have not been independently validated. Use the result as a starting point for reflection, not a diagnosis or a fixed identity.
What if several scores are close?
That is a useful result too. The test shows all scores and flags a gap of less than six points between the leading patterns. This is an editorial rule for avoiding overconfident labels, not a statistical confidence interval.
Where are my answers stored?
The free test saves progress in your browser on this device. Answers are not sent to our server for free scoring. If you choose a personal report, we ask for consent to process those answers temporarily to produce it. They are not sent to Stripe or analytics.
