Hi Experts,

I came across the term "PI test" in the selection process. I believe it pertains to evaluating personal characteristics and behaviors, including individuals' self-perception and the traits they are expected to exhibit according to others.

Could you please provide information about the PT test and how we assess it?

Hello friend,

"PI" stands for "PREDICTIVE INDEX." This is a psychometric analysis where an individual's basic nature (self) and what he perceives from the environment (self-image) are mapped. It gives a lot of insight into understanding a person's motivation and psychology. It measures a person on four aspects:

1. Dominance/Action orientation/Result orientation

2. Introversion/Extroversion

3. Pace/Speed of action

4. Detail Orientation

This is somewhat similar to "Thomas Profiling" where we have Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, Control as the four factors considered.

It needs to be emphasized here that these analysis tools are for understanding a person - a person may be suitable for a job based on his knowledge, experience, and skills although he may not exactly match the PI profile one ideally may expect. So, these tools are generally not termed as a "Test."
