The word personality originates from the Latin word persona, referring to masks worn by theater performers to hide their identity or portray different roles.

Your persona, or personality, is unique to you. It’s a combination of the behaviors, emotions, thought patterns, and motivations that define us.

Research from the past few decades has pointed to the role of environment – including how we were raised – and our genetics in forming and shaping our personalities.

So, what is your personality?

Among your group of friends, are you considered the shy one who waits for others to make decisions?

Or, are you seen as the dominant one who is ready to take the lead?

Our personality test can help you find out your personality type. Answering these simple questions will give you a description of who you are and tell you how others see you.

Instructions

Answer each of the questions below honestly about yourself and we’ll score the quiz and let you know how others see you.

This online screening is not a diagnostic tool. Only a trained medical professional, like a doctor or mental health professional, can help you determine the next best steps for you.

Disclaimer: This quiz is for entertainment purposes only. In no way is this an empirically validated test. The concepts presented are not rooted in any known research.

Ready to start therapy? Our Find a Therapist resource may help.

10 serious psychological tests you can take online

January 26, 2021 A life

Questionnaires used by practicing psychologists will help you look deep into yourself. The main thing is not to try to make a diagnosis “by profile picture”.

1. Sondi test

The test is aimed at identifying psychological abnormalities. It consists of several stages. At each of them you will be shown portraits, from which you will need to choose the least and most pleasant in your opinion.

This testing method was developed by psychiatrist Leopold Szondi at 1947 years. The doctor noticed that in the clinic, patients communicated closer with those who had the same diseases. Of course, the Internet test will not give you a diagnosis - it will just help to detect some tendencies. Moreover, depending on the state of the psyche, the results will be different, so you can take the Szondi test in any incomprehensible situation.

Take the test →

2. Beck Depression Scale

As the name suggests, this test measures how depressed you are. It takes into account the common symptoms and complaints of patients with this disease. When answering each question, you have to choose the closest one from several statements. nine0005

The test is worth taking even for those who are absolutely sure that they are healthy. Some of the statements in the questionnaire may seem strange to you, but many of them are true for a person with a disease. So if you think that depression is when someone is depressed from idleness, it's time to rethink your attitude.

Take the test →

3. Zang (Zung) scale for self-assessment of depression

Another test related to depression. It is shorter and easier to understand than the previous questionnaire. If you like an integrated approach in everything and are not ready to be content with the results of one test, you can combine them. nine0005

The author of this test is psychiatrist William Zang, also known in Russian psychology as William Tsung.

Take the test →

4. Beck Anxiety Scale

The test allows you to assess the severity of various phobias, panic attacks and other anxiety disorders. The results are not very telling. They will only tell you if you have reason to be concerned or not.

You are to read 21 statements and decide how true they are for you. nine0005

Take the test →

5. Luscher color test

This test helps to assess the psychological state through the subjective perception of color. Everything is very simple: from several colored rectangles, you first choose those that you like more, and then those that you like less.

Based on the results of the Luscher test, a specialist will be able to give recommendations on how to avoid stress, but you just look deeper inside yourself.

Pass the test →

6. Projective test "Cube in the Desert"

This test looks less serious than the previous ones, and it really is. It consists of fantasy exercises. Few questions, but the result is simple and clear.

You will be asked to present a series of images, and then they will give you an interpretation of what you were imagining. This test, most likely, will not discover America, but will simply introduce you to the real you once again.

Take the test →

7. Eysenck's temperament test

You have to answer 70 questions to find out whether you are choleric, sanguine, phlegmatic or melancholic. At the same time, the test determines the level of extraversion, so you can find out if you are an introvert or just temporarily tired of people. nine0005

Take the test →

8. Extended Leonhard-Shmishek test

The test helps to reveal personality traits. The final grade is set on several scales, each of which reveals one or another aspect. Separately, it is checked whether you sincerely answered questions or tried to be better than you really are.

Take the test →

9. Heck-Hess neurosis rapid diagnostic method

This scale will help determine the probability of neurosis. If it is high, then it may be worth contacting a specialist. nine0005

Take the test →

10. Hall's Emotional Intelligence Test

Emotional intelligence is a person's ability to recognize the moods and feelings of others.
