Please do also tell what's influenced the accuracy or reliability of your test results, as well.

For me, here's my list tests, in order of most to least reliable:

#1 - most reliable test I've done, consistent results from year to year, and also meaningful: DISC
#2 - Hermann Brain Dominance Index
#3 IQ tests - I've got bimodal distribution in this. The higher result, when I have got it, has stayed very accurate over almost 15 years with little variation. I've got the lower score in my years of burnout, depression and recovery from it. I'd say this is accurate, with reservations. IQ can be stable during person's life as a theoretical concept, but in reality, person can have downs.
#4 (bunch of all kinds of tests)
#5 MBTI .. test scores are all over. There is some center in tests scores in the last few years, with little more consistency lately. If I'd really stretch my belief, I could believe this thing to be reliable for me in the future.
#6 Enneagram. Test scores vary so greatly there is absolutely no point for me to consider this typing system. There is only one very slight chance that one type might be a decent fit for me. No, this test has failed for me as a reliable psychometric instrument.

I can't remember where that test was, but it asked:

What do you have between your legs?
1) Penis 2) Vagina 3) Neither or Both

I got the result Man.

This is really the most consistent test result I've received.

I'm not telling what answer(s) resulted in that test score.

DISC is my favorite.

That DISC assessment is the best free one I've taken. MBTI step 2 is the best quality and most valuable assessment I've taken

The official MBTI test, hands down.

I'm all over the place on every personality assessment that I take :doh:

I probably just have very low self awareness :shrug:

Edit: There are some categorization systems where I'm more certain than others--Oldham and Enneagram. Oddly enough, though, I mostly use MBTI for typing people.

^The official MBTI has me borderline N over S (but INFP), which just raises more questions (although twice, the consulting would conclude I was N at least).



I am L. Sweet :)

Same. It's totally accurate.

i've taken two disc free online tests... one told me i avoided conflict and the other said that i was self-motivated and conservative :laugh:

mbti's been my favorite so far - not in that i test accurately, but the system has had the most to offer me as far as i see it.

i am very unsure about the enneagram. i usually love mysticism stuff but it doesn't really resonate with me for whatever reason.
