In a world where understanding employees’ personalities is the key to business success, the PQ10 personality profile assessment offers a scientifically-backed solution.
PQ10 is a comprehensive workplace personality assessment rooted in advanced scientific and psychometric models of personality. Designed to meet the complex demands of modern Human Resources, PQ10 provides in-depth insights into employees’ and prospective employees’ patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
The structure of PQ10 is grounded in contemporary neuroscientific understanding of personality. This assessment encompasses ten broad scales that echo the ten aspects of personality identified by groundbreaking research by De Young et al. (2010). These scales coalesce into the universally recognised Big Five personality traits: Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Openness, Agreeableness, and Emotional Stability.
The PQ10 is a self-report inventory comprising 90 questions. It is designed to be user-friendly, requiring minimal reading, and can be completed in under 20 minutes after receipt of an invitation from the Podium assessment system. The results are immediate – reports can be generated instantly, ensuring timely selection and development processes.

An EFPA Registered Test.
Available in at least 17 languages.
PQ10 was developed using large, representative samples using multidimensional item response theory methods.
PQ10 has strong internal consistency reliability overall and across subsamples (e.g., gender and ethnicity).
Test-retest reliability analyses over a 14-day period reveal that the retest reliabilities for all scales is in excess
of .75. That’s high.
Validity studies against well-established models, such as De Young’s Aspects and the 16PF, reveal expected patterns of correlations with these alternative models.
Analyses of PQ10 data across thousands of participants of different ethnicities suggests differences across groups are unlikely to lead to adverse impact.
Predictive models using PQ10 scales and manager and colleague ratings of worker job performance reveal significant correlations with job performance.
Examination of questionnaire items across ethnic regroups reveals minimal evidence of psychometric bias (i.e., measurement invariance analyses).
Large normative comparison groups are available for PQ10 from job applicants in the Europe, Middle East, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, and around the world.
