Once upon a time there was this styles of thinking system known - interestingly enough - as Styles of Thinking, consisting of 5 thinking styles, with this big clunky test known as the InQ found here:
Thinking Styles
But then there came along a bigger, better, stronger, faster system of thinking styles known as The Holland Code. The test is found here:
Holland Code Quiz
My score on the Styles of Thinking test was Idealist-Analyst. My score on the Holland Code is
Investigative: 6
Conventional: 5
Social: 3
Artistic: 1
Enterprising: 0
Realistic: 0
Investigative in the Holland Code aligns with Analyst in Styles of Thinking, and Social in the Holland Code aligns with Idealist in Styles of Thinking.
Conventional, a category which I always knew was lacking from the Styles of Thinking, comes out second with me. So instead of being an Idealist-Analyst in the Styles of Thinking, I am now Investigative (i.e., Analyst)-Conventional.
The respective categories in the two systems line up like this:
Styles of thinking - Holland Code
Realist - Realistic
Analyst - Investigative
Pragmatist - Enterprising
Idealist - Social
Synthesist - Artistic
(none) - Conventional
