Child Temperament Profile - test for parents - emotionality, inhibition, activity, persistence, sensitivity
The interesting thing about this test is it gives you your child's temperament and your ideal of your child's temperament. On a bar graph you can see where your expectations and your child's temperament are out of whack.

This is a test to find out about a child's temperament. Numerous investigations have shown that children's behavior is affected by their temperament. A helpful insight from this research is that there is not only one way to be normal. Rather, what should be considered normal is what is normal for a given temperament. A temperament profile can help to provide insight into the different needs of different children. This, in turn, helps us to understand the child's reactions, plan accordingly, reduce conflict, and thereby convey a better self-image to the child.
With this test, you can obtain a temperament profile for any child (yours or another's) between 2 and 8 years of age. In addition, the current test also assesses your ideal expectations toward the child. Thus, a goodness-of-fit profile is also provided by this test. In addition to verbal descriptions, the test offers a graphical display of both profiles. The test has been developed from the most recent research and has been shown to provide valid assessments of a child's temperament.
