LEVEL B · RESEARCH-ADAPTED MEASURE

Work Style Test

The item set or construct comes from published research or a public-domain measurement program, but this product form may be shortened, combined, translated, or presented differently from the source administration.

CONSTRUCT

What it measures

A 32-item work-style profile built from eight public-domain IPIP-NEO-120 facets. It shows how you tend to approach execution, structure, decisions, influence, cooperation, and change.

FORMAT

What you complete

32 scored items across 8 displayed dimensions

SCORING

How the score is made

Declared Likert items are summed after reverse-keying where specified, then transformed to a 0–100 display scale. The display is a response score, not a population percentile, unless an official lookup conversion is explicitly named.

RELIABILITY

Consistency evidence

No reliability coefficient has been estimated from Inward Atlas users for this online administration. Where a source link is provided, consult it for evidence about the original instrument or source scale.

VALIDITY

What the evidence supports

The item set or construct comes from published research or a public-domain measurement program, but this product form may be shortened, combined, translated, or presented differently from the source administration. Inward Atlas has not independently established criterion, predictive, or cross-cultural validity for this implementation.

NORMS

How values should be read

No representative Inward Atlas norm sample is applied. Displayed 0–100 values are transformed response scores, not percentile ranks or claims about comparison with a population.

Source and implementation record

Inward Atlas preserves the source item wording and keying for eight 4-item facets, but the 32-item work-focused combination is an Inward Atlas adaptation. Reliability/validity values for the source facets should not be treated as validation of this new combined workplace product.

Limitations shown with the assessment

  • This is a work-focused combination of public-domain IPIP facets, not an employment selection test and not a guarantee of job performance.
  • The 0–100 values are transformed response scores, not population percentiles.
  • The source facets come from the IPIP-NEO-120; Inward Atlas's selected 32-item combination should not be treated as inheriting all validity claims of the full inventory.
  • Do not use this result as the sole basis for hiring, promotion, disciplinary, medical, or other high-stakes decisions.

Implementation notes

  • All 32 item wordings and reverse-key directions were checked against the official IPIP-NEO-120 facet page.
  • The combined work-style product is an adaptation; it does not claim to be a separately validated 32-item workplace inventory.
