This in-depth, 324-item self-report questionnaire analyzes individual differences in seven personality characteristics, eight interpersonal styles, and six career/lifestyle factors.

The report is comprised of three parts:

  • Part 1 deals with patterns that characterize broad segments of behavior, including overall adjustment, cognitive style, and achievement orientation.
  • Part 2 focuses on how the individual relates to other people by evaluating eight different styles and providing a chart of the scores plus a narrative summary.
  • Part 3 examines occupational and life style preferences from the perspective of six different orientations that are present to some extent in all of us.

In addition, a Profile Pattern Code, Validity Scores, and Item Responses are also provided in the report.

The API is a tool for selection and placement, development, career and outplacement counseling, and personal counseling.

“The 16pf Questionnaire is the most highly-validated instrument of its type and the most valuable tool we have in our assessment arsenal.” (Excerpt from a presentation at a retreat for the Larcen Consulting Group’s Core Consulting Team.)
