The Science and Psychology of Traitify

Our Science

Personality Blends and Types

Developed by our in-house psychology team, we’ve designed an assessment that is quick to complete and can be taken on any device. Users, employees, and candidates can complete an assessment at their leisure and the ease of access has demonstrable results - we’ve found 90%+ satisfaction in results and a completion rate of over 95%.

How Traitify Works

Traitify Careers Personality Assessment slide

Assessment

Simply select “Me” or “Not Me” as you relate to an image presented. Each image is hand-selected and tested by our in-house psychology team to ensure your responses correspond to the correct aspects of your personality.

Our longest assessment typically takes only two minutes and every assessment (including the results and dashboard) are 100% mobile-friendly.

Traitify personality results show Types and Blend

Personality Types

Types are the highest level descriptor of a personality. Each assessment typically has 6 or 7 personality types, giving you a broad understanding of what makes them unique with regard to that assessment. Unlike most assessments, we offer data on how exactly someone has scored in every type.

Blends: A blend is a custom description of how someone’s two dominant personality types work together to give the quickest overview of that person’s personality. Blends are available on most assessments.

Traitify personality results show traits on a scale from -100 to 100

Personality Traits

Traits are the building blocks of personality types and the power behind Traitify. These are the points of measurement collected with every response to an image and are scored on a scale of -100 to 100. Traits allow you to reach a granular level of what makes one person different from the next. Depending on the assessment, often 50 or more traits can be measured in a single assessment.

Certain Traitify assessments can show complements, conflicts, and best work environments

Extras

Certain assessments contain extra information included in their results. These can include complementing and conflicting personality types, and for our Careers assessment, the best work environment for that personality. Our Career personalities are also tied to careers within the Department of Labor’s O*Net Database.

Traitify Admin Insights Dashboard

Insights

Our administrator dashboard contains many features useful for any organization, but the insight page summarizes the personality data and establishes an actionable way to digest and understand everything that has been gathered. From here, you can view data from an overall perspective, create custom groups, and explore the data in the way that suits you best.

Compare individuals to each other, to custom groups, or to other organizations in their entirety. Segment personalities quickly and understand what makes people tick.

Science and Psychology

Rooted In Science

Before putting an assessment into the wild, our in-house psychology team vets each image and the information measured within an assessment. These assessments are then tested internally and externally before being added into our roster.

Validity and Reliability

Predictive Validity

While this testing is crucial, we also understand that your audience (users, employees, candidates, etc.) can be entirely unique when compared to another, so we strive to ensure validity and reliability where they matter – in your data. It’s important that you can trust the personality data and see that it is true to your use case.

Patented Methodology and Psychology Used

Patented Assessments

Beyond taking great steps to guarantee the quality of our assessments, we’ve also patented the methodology and psychology used. We found a fast and proven way to measure personality and can’t risk anyone diluting the science behind it.
