Q: |
Who should take the test? |
|
| |
Anyone who is interested in
understanding themselves better should take our
test. Understanding our basic motivations- what
pushes us to make certain choices, what we like,
and what we avoid, how we react- can be a key to
making choices in life. Career and educational
choices can seem overwhelming, so it helps to
have good information about ourselves as we make
plans. See below for additional uses. |

Q: |
How should the profiles be
used? |
|
| |
The personal motivational
profile and related information that comes from
the testing should be used as one tool in making
a decision. No test is perfect, so choices
should never be based on these profiles alone.
Results obtained in MAP products can often be
very helpful in clarifying what is desirable,
and identifying certain choices that should be
avoided, or might create stress. |

Q: |
Can professionals use these
products? |
|
| |
|
Our assessment products have
been used frequently by therapists, personal
coaches, personnel managers and vocational
counselors, to name a few. Many corporations
have used our profiles to match people to jobs,
or for workshops, training, or team building.

Q: |
How old should you be to take
the test? |
|
| |
|
Children as young as 12 years
of age can get very meaningful results with
these tools, as long as they clearly understand
the questions. Parents often find the
information helpful in understanding their
child, and teachers have used our products to
gain insight to the student, and plan successful
approaches to learning. Naturally, interests and
motivational patterns are more likely to change
over time when children are involved, so caution
should be used. |
