What it reports

6 scales

  • Honesty-Humility self-serving / sincere
  • Emotionality unsentimental / sensitive
  • Extraversion reserved / outgoing
  • Agreeableness challenging / accommodating
  • Conscientiousness spontaneous / organised
  • Openness conventional / inventive

You get a score on each, read against adults generally. Neither end of a scale is the better end.

Explore Six Key Dimensions of Your Personality!

The HEXACO model has emerged as a groundbreaking framework in personality psychology, extending beyond the traditional Big Five dimensions. Here’s why it stands out:

  • Six Key Dimensions: Unlike the Big Five, HEXACO adds Honesty-Humility to Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Emotionality (replacing Neuroticism), offering a more comprehensive understanding of human personality.
  • Honesty-Humility Factor: This unique dimension captures traits related to fairness, sincerity, and modesty, distinguishing HEXACO in its ability to predict behavior in ethical scenarios and interpersonal relationships.
  • Global Acceptance: Researchers worldwide have adopted the HEXACO model for its robust cross-cultural applicability, showcasing its effectiveness in diverse populations.
  • Predictive Power: The model excels in forecasting various life outcomes, including workplace performance, academic success, and social dynamics, thanks to its nuanced trait spectrum.
  • Engaging Insights: For individuals, the HEXACO test provides fascinating insights into personality traits that influence daily interactions, career paths, and personal growth strategies.

Its popularity in personality research stems from its nuanced approach to character assessment, offering deeper insights into how we think, behave, and interact with the world around us. The HEXACO model not only enriches academic understanding but also provides practical tools for self-awareness and development.

    What you get

    Your results, and their limits

    As soon as you finish

    You see your score on each scale the test measures, together with a short note on what that scale refers to and how to read the number. There is no charge.

    Scores are read against adults generally. That is the one comparison group held for this test, so a score places you among adults as a whole rather than among people of your age, occupation or country.

    What it will not tell you

    It is not a diagnosis and not a clinical assessment. It will not tell you whether you are suited to a particular job or course, and a score is not a verdict on you.

    Results depend on how carefully and honestly you answer. If a result concerns you, or you are struggling, speak to a doctor or a licensed psychologist. Terms of use.
