First look at the distribution, then look at the four letters

The results page will give the number of answers at both ends of each dimension, the number of neutrals, and actual answer evidence. The same score may come from different combinations of answers: all neutrals and strong responses at either end cancel each other out, and may both fall in the midpoint, but have different meanings.

How to get percentage

Each answer is scored from −2 to +2, multiplied by the direction of the question. Questions in the same dimension are added up with equal weight. If there are n questions in this dimension and the total score is s, the preference score on the left is round(50 + 50 × s / (2n)), and the preference score on the right is 100 minus the score on the left. It is not a percentile compared to a population norm.

What does x and close to the midpoint mean?

When the original total score is zero, the dimension is represented by X. This site does not force you to choose a side. The interface marks less than 10 points from 50 as close to the midpoint; this is an interface rule to aid reading, not a proven psychological cutoff.

What is the use of single question sensitivity?

This site attempts to change one answer and keep the rest unchanged to check whether the direction of the tendency may change or become balanced. This tip helps you identify how sensitive your results are to changes in individual questions, not confidence intervals, measurement error, or test-retest reliability.
