Scoring Overview

Our test uses the Open Extended Jungian Type Scales (OEJTS), a public-domain assessment validated with over 25,000 participants. The scoring is transparent and reproducible.

Question Structure

Each question presents two opposing traits. You indicate your preference on a 5-point scale:

Example Question:

Energized by socializing
Energized by solitude
Score Meaning
1 Strongly prefer left trait
2 Somewhat prefer left trait
3 No preference (neutral)
4 Somewhat prefer right trait
5 Strongly prefer right trait

Dimension Calculation

The 32 questions are divided into 8 questions per dimension. We sum your answers for each dimension:

E–I Dimension

Questions: 3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, 27, 31
4 3 5 2 4 3 4 3 = 28

S–N Dimension

Questions: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32
2 3 4 2 3 4 3 4 = 25

T–F Dimension

Questions: 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30
3 2 4 3 2 3 4 3 = 24

J–P Dimension

Questions: 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29
4 5 3 4 5 4 3 4 = 32

Score range: Each dimension score ranges from 8 (all 1s) to 40 (all 5s). The midpoint is 24.

Type Determination

For each dimension, we compare the score to the threshold of 24:

E–I Score: 28
E
I
8 24 40
28 > 24 → I
S–N Score: 25
S
N
8 24 40
25 > 24 → N
T–F Score: 24

T
8 24 40
24 ≤ 24 → F (tie goes left)
J–P Score: 32

P
8 24 40
32 > 24 → P

Final Type:

Percentage Calculation

We convert raw scores to percentages to show preference strength:

Right trait % = ((score - 8) / 32) × 100
Dimension Score Calculation Result
E–I 28 (28-8)/32 × 100 62.5% I
S–N 25 (25-8)/32 × 100 53.1% N
T–F 24 (24-8)/32 × 100 50.0% F
J–P 32 (32-8)/32 × 100 75.0% P
