Welcome to the Personality Assessment

About This Assessment

This assessment will measure your personality across multiple dimensions. As a fun wrinkle, it will also show you how you compare to popular fictional comic characters (as rated by Claude).


These measures are based on the methods from my dissertation applied to a dataset of ~345 respondents from the Eugene-Springfield sample. These methods use a psycholexical basis for a structure of personality. Measures were refined using IRT analyses.

The Three Main Dimensions:
  • Stabilizing: Your ability to manage emotions and maintain harmonious relationships
  • Dynamism: Your level of energy, assertiveness, and boldness
  • Openness: Your willingness to try new ideas and embrace innovation vs. tradition
