Caveat Emptor: About these assessment tools

Listed and described are some FREE psychological profiling assessments, brief quizzes or tests that you may find useful or interesting. Reliable psychological assessments that provide accurate and credible results are usually "protected psychological instruments," and thus not free and require a professional to administer, score, and interpret the test.

So, the tests listed here should not be considered diagnostic, and should be taken with a bit of skepticism, caution, and critical thinking. Some may require a registration process that may provide the testing company with personal data so you may want to consider whether or not you are willing to share your data or your email address before proceeding. Some may also use the free test as an opportunity to try to sell you something, either through advertising or fee-based services. Always check the "About" page of any interactive web site or service before proceeding.
