Assessment Questionnaire
The statements are intentionally mixed together: answer each one on its own, spontaneously. Behind the scenes, your answers map out your comfort zones and the areas you can explore. There is no right answer—only your own.
Your answers remain on your device and are not sent anywhere. At the end, your map will appear on the screen; enter your email address to download it as a PDF.
Tip: Keys 1 through 5 on your keyboard also work.
Paradigmatiks · Your Results
Your Location Map
Three complementary interpretations of the same set of answers. None of them is a judgment; they are starting points for further inquiry.
1 · Overview
The farther the line extends from the center along a branch, the more comfortable you feel with that dimension.
2 · Details, from the most solid to the most fragile
Comfort score by dimension, on a scale of 0 to 100. The color corresponds to the legend on the map below.
3 · Real or Apparent Comfort?
Horizontal axis: your level of comfort. Vertical axis: the consistency between what you state and what your “reversed” responses reveal. A large gap indicates apparent comfort—or a difficulty you haven’t yet articulated.
4 · Where to Start Asking Questions
These areas stand out as priorities: first, your blind spots, then the areas where you feel least comfortable. These aren’t weaknesses—they’re the most promising doors to open first.
