The PSI Survey from the Intuitive Self

To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

This shows the way you approach and/or solve problems or when you do projects, etc.

My results:

Role: Student

How do you prepare for the future?
13% Planning

In developing proposals, you carefully outline what is required to get a job done when you have an important activity due. In completing a project on schedule, you arrange tasks in proper order, and you anticipate what may cause delays in the task schedule. When you have a special job, you organize it carefully from the start, and you prioritize assignments to meet future objectives.


Vision 87%

In generating scenarios, you use imaginative ways of doing things. Getting ready for a new project, you improvise novel ways of doing things, and you conceive future directions by combining new ideas. In selecting a future course of action, you create new avenues using imaginative skills, and you visualize novel ideas in setting the direction for a new assignment.

Guess I am not necessarily a detail-oriented planner?


How do you solve problems?
61% Analysis

As a specialist, you analyze step-by-step what is required to arrive at a solution. To clearly see how they relate, you classify the elements of a problem, and you identify the steps required to achieve a problem solution. In order to understand its elements, you break a problem down into its parts, and you investigate a problem by specifically evaluating each of its elements.


Insight 97%

As a generalist, you look at a problem as a whole approaching it from all sides. Since you believe a solution should synthesize problem elements into an integrated whole, you explore the elements of a situation for a global perspective. When problem parameters are incomplete, you surmise what you need to do, and you combine problem elements to see the issue as a whole.


True.


How do you approach work?
53% Control

Being procedure centered, you believe following specific procedures ensures timely task completion. To accomplish a task, you focus on the procedures required to do the job, and you follow established rules in completing an assignment. Since you believe procedures ensure efficiency in getting work completed, you think that it is important to follow prescribed guidelines.


Sharing 0%

Being people centered, you approach task completion by networking with other team members. To meet shared responsibilities, you coordinate with your teammates because you believe to get a job done, you should cooperate with group members. In your assigned tasks, you participate with other team members since you believe combining talents in a group effort helps get the job done.


As I anticipated. Perhaps the fact that whenever I had to do the group projects, I was always in the group with bunch of lazy people who expect me to do everything.

o_O If these are supposed to be dichotomies, then this is kind of a weird test.

Your Strategy Profile shows the relative strength of your preferences for Rational versus Intuitive ways of doing and being in the world:

97% - Planning
96% - Vision
94% - Analysis
90% - Insight
1% - Control
56% - Sharing

I tend to discuss the future course of action with team mates to make sure I am not doing anything for people what they can do at their own.

The PSI Strategy Profile


Your Strategy Profile shows the relative strength of your preferences for Rational versus Intuitive ways of doing and being in the world:

* Planning versus Vision ways of preparing for the future,
* Analysis versus Insight ways of solving problems, and
* Control versus Sharing ways of approaching work.

The scales show the strength of your preference measured from the center of the profile in both directions. The length of the red shading corresponds to the percentile that appears above the scale bar. The text for each scale describes the behavior of a person with that preference. The larger your percentile, the more accurately the description represents your behavior.

Here are the Results of Your Survey

Printing Your Profile

You can prepare a summary profile to print on one page. Use this link to generate the summary in a separate browser window. Send that page to your printer from the "File" pull down menu to prepare a hard copy of the summary profile. If you are using the PSI Learning Kit, follow the instructions on pages 7 and 8 to transfer your results to page 11.

What do the Percentiles Mean?

Percentile scores represent the percentage of people who have an equal or lower preference than yours for that scale. Percentiles greater than 70% indicate you are more likely to use those ways of behaving even when they may not be most appropriate. The words that capture your most preferred behavior for those modes are highlighted in red.

Percentiles less than 30% indicate you are more likely to ignore those behaviors even when they may be the best approach. The phrase that describes your least preferred behavior for those modes is highlighted in green. For scales where you scored from 30% to 70%, no phrases are highlighted. For a complete interpretation of the Strategy Profile, refer to pages 12 and 13 of your PSI Learning Kit.
