Strengths test

Strengths test is a psychometric assessment developed by Dmitry Golubnichy from the HIGH5 Test. The company launched the test in 2017. Test takers are introduced to the assessment which contains 120 paired statements. It takes up to 20 minutes to finish the assessment. With paired statements, test takers are provided with the option to select which corresponds with their option of the paired statement. Upon completing the assessment you are presented with the report that outlines test takers' 5 strengths areas they scored highest in, an explanation of each strength, and how to use those strengths for personal and professional development.
Dmitry and his team developed the test using the principles of strengths-based practice and positive psychology. They have arrived to the current specification of the HIGH5 model. It measures 20 applicable strengths across 4 strength domains. The 4 strength domains are: doing, feeling, motivating and thinking. Within those domains, there are 20 strength areas:
*Doing: Believer, Deliverer, Focus Expert, Problem Solver, Time Keeper;
*Feeling: Chameleon, Coach, Emphathizer, Optimist, Peace Keeper;
*Motivating: Catalyst, Commander, Self-Believer, Storyteller, Winner;
*Thinking: Analyst, Brainstormer, Philomath, Strategist, Thinker.
From 2017 to 2024, approximately 5,000,000 people took the strengths test and 25,000,000 strengths have been identified. Their platform helps individuals further develop their strengths, while managers, team leaders, and coaches can train and grow the strengths of their teams.
Each psychometric assessment or tool should be valid and reliable. That's why there are 3 major indicators for assessing the validity and reliability of any psychometric test. Those are: discriminant validity, internal consistency and test-retest reliability.
The discriminant validity's maximum accepted value is 0.7-0.8, while HIGH5's strengths test is 0.29. Higher scores mean would imply that there is not too much difference between the two strengths evaluated.
A coefficient called is designed to measure internal consistency and its maximum accepted value is 0.7, while the strengths test has 0.87. Any lower values imply that questions might not measure the intended strength.
Repeatability is the correlation between the test results today and the results of retaking it after a significant period of time. The strengths test has a value of 0.81. The minimum acceptable correlation is 0.7. The higher the value is, the more consistent the test results are across time.
This test is usable for various situations and scenarios, from personal development and growth to professional development, career choices and organizational recruitment.
