The personality framework

psymet uses a 16-type Jungian personality framework with four dimensions, each scored from 0 to 100 between two poles, including a borderline band.

psymet describes working preferences with a 16-type framework rooted in Jungian type: four dimensions, each scored from 0 to 100 between two opposite poles. The combination of which side of each dimension you lean towards gives one of 16 types.

The four dimensions

Each dimension describes a pair of opposite preferences, such as where you draw energy from or how you prefer to make decisions. Everyone uses both poles; the score shows which you tend to reach for first.

Scores from 0 to 100

A score close to either end means a clear preference for that pole. A score near 50 means you draw on both fairly evenly. The number describes a tendency, not a skill or a level of ability.

The borderline band

Scores close to the midpoint fall in a borderline band. When a dimension is borderline, the letter for that dimension is less settled, and it is worth reading both sides of the description.

What the framework is and isn't

The framework is a shared vocabulary that helps teams discuss preferences. It does not measure ability, performance or suitability for a role.
