----- Mental Aptitudes -----
Mental Acuity
Joe, you like to take some time to think through, reason and fully understand more difficult, complex problems before arriving at a solution or making a decision, especially if the situation is unfamiliar to you. You probably prefer, in a training situation, to observe an experienced person perform a task and then perform that task yourself, in front of the experienced person, until you feel confident working on your own. Once you learn something, you retain that information for long periods of time. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Business Terms
You have a limited understanding of business terminology, perhaps due to a lack of exposure to business matters or a lack of interest. This dimension measures actual knowledge, however, not ability to learn business terms, should such knowledge be important in the career you pursue. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Memory Recall
You keep up-to-date with the world around you and can utilize your knowledge of competitive information and techniques, as well as economic trends, to enhance job achievements. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Vocabulary
Joe, your limited vocabulary skills could be a liability when clearly and effectively communicating with others orally or in writing. It is possible that English is your second language. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Numerical Perception
Your average Numerical Perception score means that you can handle detail work, but the work will have to be checked for errors. Poor vision, tension, or carelessness may affect the Perception score. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Mechanical Interest
Your level of interest in mechanical devices is average. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)


----- Personality Structure -----

Energy
Joe, you are a calm individual with a low energy level. You will handle environmental pressure well, but may lack the inner tension to energetically tackle assignments or projects. This score should be checked against the distortion score, as individuals who distort often depict themselves as being more calm than they actually are. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Flexibility
You have a good sense of integrity and are an ethical individual who is focused on what you want to accomplish. You will also be flexible and adaptable to change, as well as able to handle multiple job demands and assignments. You can be creative or stick with the "tried and true," depending on the circumstances. Even though you will try to generate new solutions to problems, you will be concerned about quality prior to implementing a change. You can be innovative, but will test your new ideas and concepts to be certain any risks involved are minimal. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Organization
You are very organized and oriented to planning your time and activities. You preplan projects and assignments to make the best use possible of the time and resources you have available to reach goals and priorities, and are generally aware of deadlines. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Communication
You have an interactive, sharing style of communicating and will be a good collaborator who will share your own thoughts and knowledge with others. Even though you are open and interactive and feel comfortable expressing your thoughts to people, you do not require constant contact with people to be content. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Emotional Dev
Joe, you are a very self-assured person with a strong degree of self-confidence. You believe in yourself, have a very high frustration tolerance level and have a high degree of patience for yourself and others. This score should be checked against the distortion score, as individuals who distort often portray themselves as more patient than they actually are. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Assertiveness
You can take control, maintain order, and express your opinions, but are open to the ideas of others and will not actively seek out conflict. You will attempt to influence and direct others, but not to the point of appearing unnecessarily demanding. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Competitiveness
You have a strong competitive drive and desire to compete, and take pride in winning. Although you will participate in a team competitive effort, you particularly enjoy situations which allow you to compete on your own. You will be a strong competitor, always prepared to meet or exceed your goals and win. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Mental Toughness
You have a mentally tough attitude towards life. You can handle criticism, rejection and other negative aspects of a job without becoming discouraged. Since you are so tough-minded, however, you may appear insensitive towards others. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Questioning /Probing
You are trusting, but also cautious. You will ask reasonable, but direct, questions to determine the motives behind a decision or action, and will probe to better analyze a situation. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Motivation
Joe, you are motivated by challenge and recognition for your achievements, and will take personal action to accomplish more when the right rewards are offered. You will accept a risk when the potential for profit and recognition exists. You are willing to work long hours and put in extra effort, even if it means making sacrifices in order to achieve success. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

----- Validity Scales -----

Distortion
You are reasonably fair in assessing your strengths and weaknesses. You have some characteristics that you are not completely happy with and tend not to show others. The validity may be slightly affected by your indirect answers. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

You have scored within our acceptable equivocation range. (Sample Test - Not for Resale or Distribution.)

Development Suggestions
Introduction



The following Personal Development Suggestions have been developed to be given to an individual after hiring, should the appropriate supervisor and/or the individual orienting the individual choose to do so.


The development pages are directed specifically to the individual. The pages can be either removed from the report, or copied, and given to the individual.


The individual who is supervising, leading, directing or coaching new employees may want to review, as part of the employee's orientation process, the job description and the requirements of the job, and at that same time provide the individual this information to assist them in beginning the job on the most effective and efficient basis.


These development suggestions provide guidelines for the individual, recommending actions that can be taken on a daily and weekly basis to become more productive.

Personal Development Suggestions

Energy - Measures drive, energy, stress level and tension, and how an individual copes with stress or pressure.

You handle work-related pressure well and tension usually does not cause a problem, but being calm, you may not approach projects or assignments with as much of a sense of urgency as is needed to complete the job within the prescribed timeframe.
Your self-affirmation sentence:
"I vigorously undertake each task."

Steps to Effect Change

  1. If you desire more achievement-oriented behavior, start making up an itinerary one week in advance and begin activities as early in the day as possible. Then, monitor yourself to see that you are following the plan as closely as possible.

  2. If you are in a non-changing, lack-of-activity situation for the majority of your day, you may need to create a pattern to force activity on a consistent basis. This arrangement will create greater momentum toward a more active life.

Personal Development Suggestions

Organization - measures a person's attitude about organization, planning, how tasks are performed and how one's life is lived.

You are extremely organized and oriented to planning your time and activities. You generally plan everything in advance and make the best use possible of the time and resources you have available to you to reach goals. When scheduling your activities, you often assign a specific time to each assignment and work best within this frame of time.
Your self-affirmation sentence:
"I am flexible."

Steps to Effect Change

  1. Keep a mental plan of daily activities and the time allotted for them. When allotting specific times to activities, build in enough leeway to handle interruptions, unforeseen contingencies which might arise, etc.

  2. Role playing exercises which teach and encourage extemporaneous thought and action should be entered into as frequently as feasible.

  3. A weekly or monthly schedule of your objectives should be created, reviewed, and items crossed off when accomplished. Learn to accept schedule interruptions.

Personal Development Suggestions

Emotional Development - measures ego, self-esteem and emotional maturity compared to chronological age (age from date of birth).

You are a self-assured individual with healthy self-esteem. You believe in yourself and are not easily frustrated when things do not happen as quickly as you desire. You are self-reliant, but may at times be overly tolerant and fail to take action as quickly as you should, believing everything will "work out okay."
Your self-affirmation sentence:
"I am an action-oriented person."

Steps to Effect Change

  1. Your biggest problem lies in your tolerance level and possible procrastination when action is called for. You must learn what you can achieve if you try harder and reach for greater achievement through established goals and objectives.

  2. You need to mentally stress the daily and weekly process of planning time and activities to make the right things take place for timely accomplishment. Avoid becoming complacent over any unmet goals.

  3. You can seek regular counseling with others to make sure that you are not being slack about reaching your goals; ask "significant others" in your life to apply pressure, when necessary, to help you meet set goals.

  4. Goal setting is highly important - write goals down and evaluate your progress daily. Tell someone close to you that you are working toward a goal; let that person urge you on!
