16 Personalities Test: The 16 Personality Types
63 questions·10 min·5 dimensions and a separate readiness-to-change module·up to 14 clinical frameworks·5 report sections
Reviewed by Gildas Garrec, CBT practitioner
Good morning,
This test places the answers on independent axes: where energy is drawn from; how information is processed, through concrete facts or through possibilities; what a decision leans on, logic or human impact; and the relationship with planning. The report accounts for the sharpness of each axis as much as for the combination obtained.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 63 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book The Practical CBT Guide, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
16 Personalities Test: The 16 Personality Types — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test places the answers on independent axes. The report gives the sharpness of each axis — what a label erases. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): an interpretation of its 5 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 14 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This interactive test looks at where your energy comes from, how you process information, what your decisions rest on, your relationship with planning, and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Energy If, after a busy week, you lean toward staying home or toward going out and seeing people. If, in a group, you wait your turn before speaking or speak up as soon as an idea comes to you. Information If, when you walk into a room, you notice the overall picture or the details first. If, faced with assembly instructions, you improvise without following the steps or follow them one at a time. Decision If what matters most to you is keeping the peace in the group or a fair rule. If, to say no to someone, you say it plainly, without beating around the bush, or look for the words to spare the person. Organization If, to pack your bags, you get ready as you go or get everything ready ahead of time, list in hand. If, when an appointment is moved at the last minute, you adapt to it on the spot or immediately rearrange your schedule. Readiness to change If what you have just described matters in how you function day to day. If you want to get better at working with this way of functioning.
About this test
▼
Dimensions assessed
- ●Energy (E/I)- Drawing energy from the outer world (Extraversion) vs the inner world (Introversion).
- ●Information (S/N)- Favoring concrete facts and the present (Sensing) vs ideas, possibilities and meaning (Intuition).
- ●Decision (T/F)- Deciding mainly by logic and objectivity (Thinking) vs values and human impact (Feeling).
- ●Organization (J/P)- Preferring structure, plans and closure (Judging) vs flexibility and openness (Perceiving).
- ●Readiness to Change- Measures your current readiness to acknowledge the impact of this topic on your life and engage in a process of growth.
- ●Your reading of your way of functioning- The way you explain your psychological way of functioning to yourself, before the test tells you anything at all. This section measures no difficulty and produces no level: it gathers a starting reading, because functioning is not explained the same way depending on whether you trace it to a temperament present since childhood, to what life has taught you, or to a mix of both.
