WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Open DISC Identifier (ODAT) Test - Symptoms and Signs

disc model

openpsychometrics

professional type

personality type

This brief self-report measure is designed to identify a respondent’s predominant DISC-style behavioral tendencies across common interpersonal and task situations. The Open DISC Identifier (ODAT) organizes responses around four broad dimensions (Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness) to support a concise behavioral profile. It includes 16 items and typically takes about 3 minutes to complete.

Results are intended to summarize relative response patterns that may be relevant to communication, teamwork, and conflict management, and should be interpreted in context rather than as a diagnostic classification.
