Freudly really helped me discover parts of my personality I hadn’t noticed before. It strengthened the areas where I needed to grow and made me feel more grounded and confident in the parts that already worked well.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Assessment of Entrepreneurial Abilities Test

Entrepreneurial Aptitude Assessment Test

This brief self-report measure is designed to screen for personal characteristics and preferences relevant to entrepreneurial activity. The Entrepreneurial Aptitude Assessment provides a structured way to reflect on domains commonly associated with initiating and sustaining business efforts.

Developed by Robert D. Hisrich and John W. Hornaday, it consists of 20 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Item content generally samples themes such as comfort with risk, decision-making, persistence, tolerance for ambiguity, and strategic orientation.

The Entrepreneurial Aptitude Assessment is intended for informational use in settings such as career exploration, training programs, or preliminary selection contexts, and results should be interpreted as an indicator of current tendencies rather than a definitive prediction of performance.
