Each dimension ranges from 0 to 10. Its endpoints are:

• Resilience: Fast to Recover – Slow to Recover.

• Outlook: Negative – Positive.

• Social Intuition: Puzzled – Intuitive.

• Self-Awareness: Self-Opaque – Self-Aware.

• Sensitivity to Context: Tuned Out – Tuned In.

• Attention: Unfocused – Focused.


Depending on your scores on each of the six dimensions, you will immediately see your overall emotional type.

You might be a positive person who recovers quickly, is socially intuitive, self-opaque, tuned-in, and focused. Or perhaps you are negative, recover quickly, are puzzled by social cues, self-opaque, and unfocused.

Whatever your emotional type, knowing about it is the first step toward understanding how it affects your health and relationships – and toward deciding whether you want to shift toward the right or left end of any of the six dimensions.
