How this scan works
Four traits, 15 questions, one readout.
Every question feeds one of the trait meters. Your total across all of them sets the readout band, and when one trait clearly dominates it can tip the result on its own. The archetypes are plain-language summaries of trait combinations described in published personality research, not clinical labels.

Frequently asked
What does workplace manipulation look like?
Four patterns cover most of it: triangulation (communicating about you through others), quiet sabotage (missed handoffs, ideas taken, mistakes amplified), guilt trips (favors that become debts) and information games (selective sharing, leaving you off emails). Each one is deniable alone; together they form a pattern.
How do I deal with a manipulative coworker?
Make everything visible. Confirm requests in writing, copy the relevant people, go directly to the source when you hear secondhand claims, and keep a dated log. Manipulation depends on ambiguity, and documentation removes it.
Is my answer data stored?
No. Scoring happens entirely in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. Close the tab and it is gone.
