About Personality Type Score Calculator

Each axis score picks the letter by its sign, and the absolute values give the clarity of each preference as a share of the maximum ten. Low clarity on an axis means the letter is close to a coin flip, which is the main reason type results change between sittings.

Formulas

Letter selection

each letter is chosen by the sign of that axis score

Clarity

clarity % = average absolute axis score / 10 x 100

Assumptions and limits

  • The result is derived only from the 4 inputs listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
  • In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax or compounding frequency into account.
  • Figures are rounded for display to 1 decimal place, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.
