Personal Orientation Inventory, POI

Online version of the Personal Orientation Inventory (POI), a classic measure developed by Everett Shostrom to assess positive psychological functioning and self-actualization within the framework of humanistic psychology. Drawing on concepts associated with Abraham Maslow and other existential-humanistic theorists, the inventory evaluates orientations related to autonomy, personal values, time perspective, spontaneity, and adaptive interpersonal functioning.
