Why it matters

Research Approach Image

Our approach

Accuracy matters. You deserve accurate results, especially if you’re using what you learn from us to make changes in your life. Validity matters too. We compare our scientifically-validated assessments to other psychological assessments to make sure what we’re measuring isn’t changing. And we work with organizations like the British Psychological Association and American Psychological Association to meet the highest standards in personality psychology.

Reliability and validity

Reliability is about how consistent our results are. Cars are reliable if they work most of the time. The same goes for psychological assessments. You can find our reliability statistics here.

Validity means that we’re actually measuring what we say we’re trying to measure.
