How Mindseta tests work
Method, limits and principles of Mindseta tests: how they are built, what they measure and what they don't.
Free: the quiz, your profile and a reflection prompt. In-depth reports are optional paid purchases. You can stop at the preview without buying or registering.
What they are
Mindseta offers short self-reflection tests inspired by well-known psychological constructs: attachment styles, personality traits, emotional intelligence, burnout, communication styles. Self-reflection questionnaires have 12 situational questions; logic quizzes have 15 puzzles. Each test returns a result with a score and an explanation.
How they are built
Questions describe everyday situations. Each answer has a defined weight. For the same questionnaire and scoring version, identical answers produce the same result. A chatbot does not generate the report on demand: prepared texts are selected according to the profile. People with the same profile may read the same texts. Personalisation reflects your answers; it is not an individual assessment by a specialist.
Reading the index and dimensions
The index compares your score with the test maximum. Dimension percentages describe the distribution of your choices, not probabilities, grades or clinical measurements. Ties produce a mixed profile with the tied dimensions presented together. We do not show population percentiles because we have no validated reference sample.
What they are NOT
The tests are not diagnostic tools and do not replace an assessment by a psychologist or a doctor. They do not measure disorders, do not give clinical labels and should not be used to make important decisions about yourself or others. If anything you read worries you, talk to a professional.
Privacy
The link contains encoded, not encrypted, answers and transmits them to the server when opened. Anyone receiving it can reconstruct the choices. The new checkout sends Stripe a random order reference. The service database stores answers and a copy of the purchased report; earlier payments may contain the answer token in metadata. Read the privacy notice before sharing a result.
Preview and optional purchases
The quiz, profile, score and reflection prompt are free. Dimension tests also show the distribution of your answers. You can stop there. First reading unlocks the summary, one section and one tip for this result; Full report includes its entire analysis. These are alternative purchases and their cost is not credited towards a Pass. Mindseta Pass is a one-time payment, no subscription, for access without expiration to the full reports of all tests in the catalog at the time of purchase. Retakes of those tests are included; tests added in the future are not. The covered catalog is shown before payment. Previous purchases retain access to the individual offer purchased.
What a report contains
Current reports are editorial texts associated with the profile produced by your answers: 6 sections, 3 practical tips and a reflection question. Logic tests also include explained solutions. You can retake tests included in your Pass with different answers and read the report for your new result. Retake reports use the current version of the test.
Recovering your purchase
First reading, Full report and Pass each come with a recovery code. After purchase, keep your personal code somewhere safe. A technical cookie remembers access in your browser; if you switch browsers or clear site data, enter your code on the Access page. Cookie expiration does not make the Pass expire. The code restores only the offer you bought: do not share it with your result link.
