Questions

Before you start

How is this different from other personality tests?

Most tests score E/I, S/N, T/F and J/P separately and combine the letters. This test measures the eight cognitive functions directly, then works out which four you use and in what order. That order is what your type actually describes.

Should I answer how I am or how I want to be?

How you are now, on an ordinary day. There are no better or worse answers, and answering as the person you're working toward will give you someone else's type.

What if my result doesn't feel right?

If you already know your type, select it before answering the questions. Otherwise, use the identified type as a starting point and compare it with your everyday experience. You can choose your profile type in the Hub.

Can I skip a question or go back?

Yes. Use theBack button, or tap any segment of the progress bar to jump straight to that question. Anything you missed shows up in a different colour.

Can I retake it?

As often as you like. There's a Retake button on the results page.

Is my data stored?

Your answers are scored in your browser. No account or email is needed to see your result. If you choose to save to the Hub, your answers, email and selected or assessed type are sent to OnType. Verify your email to access your saved results. Marketing emails require separate consent.
