The 32-question quick form uses eight independently written prompts for each dimension. The detailed form adds eight prompts per dimension, totaling 64. Within each dimension, questions alternate direction; all response labels use a five-point agreement scale.
Each answer maps from 1–5 to −2…+2. Reverse-direction questions multiply by −1. For each dimension, add all keyed answers, then scale the sum to 0–100. A score of 50 is an exact tie. Higher scores favor the first letter (E, S, T, J), lower scores favor the second (I, N, F, P).
A score within 10 points of 50 is flagged as near-balanced. For an exact tie, the first letter is used only as a deterministic temporary display convention. Neither a type code nor a score is a probability, diagnosis or permanent label.
TypeCompass v1 has not undergone reliability studies, factor analysis, criterion validation or norm calibration. It should not be used for clinical decisions, hiring, school selection or predicting relationship success. Language parity is tested for key IDs and scoring, but cross-cultural equivalence has not been established.
All question wording, profile narratives and geometric characters are original. This is an independent learning experience and is not affiliated with the owners of the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator instrument. Trademarks are named only for explanatory comparison.
