About this personality test
The test measures nine traits that psychologists widely use to describe personality: Sociability, Imagination, Warmth, Discipline, Calm, Integrity, Drive, Boldness and Optimism. Each trait gets a score from 0 to 100.
Your four-letter type
Four of the traits also give you a type, in the spirit of Carl Jung's psychological types: Extraverted or Introverted (Sociability), iNtuitive or Sensing (Imagination), Feeling or Thinking (Warmth) and Judging or Perceiving (Discipline). That gives 16 types, each with its own description.
This test is our own and is not the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®), which is a trademark of The Myers-Briggs Company. Traits are continuous: if you score near 50 on one, you sit between the two letters.
