The NEO-PI-R is usually completed in approximately 60 minutes and yields a measure of five personality factors, each of which is subdivided into four subfactors.
 

16PF4 and 16PF5
The 16PF measures sixteen functionally independent personality traits, which can be used to calculate a series of higher order factors that are directly relevant to leadership potential, creativity, team roles, etc. Available as a traditional paper-based assessment the 16PF is usually completed in around 40 minutes.
 

Care Assistant Personality Inventory (CAPI)
The CAPI assesses four areas of personality which have been found to be predictors of good performance amongst Care Assistants in nursing and care homes as well as hospitals. Available on-line or as a traditional paper-based assessment.
 

Gordon Personality Inventory
The GPI measures eight aspects of personality which are significant in the daily functioning of the normal person. Available as a traditional paper-based assessment, the GPI is used extensively for the identification of development needs.
  LSQ (Lifestyle Questionnaire)
The LSQ assesses areas of occupational preference and also environmental requirements. It gives a good indication of the types of job an individual is likely to enjoy, whilst also highlighting those things that should act as powerful motivators or demotivators.
  Insight
Insight is a behavioural style inventory that enables people to assess their ways of working and also to compare themselves to other members of their working group. This means that it is particularly useful for assessing individual motivations within a group and helping to develop motivational strategies which will be effective across the group.
  Psychological Solutions also stocks a much wider range of Personality and Motivational Assessments including the OPQ, CPI, MMPI, MBTI and Motive.
