How personality can predict on-the-job success
The 16pf® (Sixteen Personality Factor) Questionnaire is a scientifically validated psychological assessment developed by Raymond Cattell to measure 16 primary personality traits identified through factor analysis. These traits together provide a comprehensive picture of an individual’s normal personality to reveal strengths, behavioral tendencies, and potential for success across various roles and environments.
Talogy’s 16pf® personality assessment builds on over 70 years of psychometric science, offering a trusted, data-driven approach to understanding personality in the workplace. By aligning with the same core traits defined by Cattell, Talogy’s 16pf® helps organizations identify talent potential, predict performance, and guide development decisions with scientific precision.
Combining robust psychological theory with modern technology, the 16pf® delivers an engaging, efficient, and globally validated assessment experience. We empower global businesses with the right data to make better human capital decisions.
