INSTRUCTIONS

for test 7

The following test comprises five situations (I, II, III, IV, V) with four statements each (1, 2, 3, 4). Each statement presents a particular way of dealing with a situation and reaching a solution.
On the basis of what you would do in each situation, you have to determine your first choice and your second choice among each set of four statements. Your first choice is your preferred way of reaching a solution while your second choice is your next preferred way to do so.

On the answer sheet for each situation, you write down your first choice in the square box below the letter A and your second choice in the square box below the letter B.

To make up your mind, read all four statements (1, 2, 3, 4) relating to a situation, compare them, and then determine your first and second choice on the basis of what you would do in each situation.

Here is an example:

Situation No. X

If you have to determine whether someone is competent for some work or not, what will you mostly attach importance to in your assessment?

1) The references you get from competent and trustworthy people;

2) The characteristics he/she shares with those providing satisfactory work;

3) The personal touch he/she brings to any work, and his/her attention to details on all occasions;

4) His/her references, the qualities he/she shares with other competent people, and his/her attention to details.

Instructions to answer:

• Write down your first choice in square box below A.

• Write down your second choice in square box below B.

(...)

In short, read through everything concerning a given situation before making your two choices.

To get in touch with us...
The simple fact of responding to a questionnaire whose purpose is to get the learning profile of a pupil, a student, an adult, put this one on the road to get a better understanding of his/her own way of learning, communicating and creating. From there, it is possible to go through the analysis and interpretation step of his/her learning profile to identify its implications in the different situation of learning, communicating and creating in which he/she is involved in on a daily basis and his/her life long.
