SBTI Algorithm

How does the SBTI test work?

SBTI is not a random draw. It uses 30 quick questions to capture your current reactions, compresses them into 15 dimensions, then compares that pattern against standard type profiles.

01

30 questions capture gut reactions

Each question looks at your first reaction across pressure, social energy, emotion, and action. The less you polish your answers, the more the result reflects your current state.

02

5 models become 15 dimensions

SBTI maps answers into Self, Emotion, Attitude, Action, and Social models, each with three sub-dimensions. The result is a profile, not just a label.

03

Distance matching picks the closest type

Your 15-position pattern is compared with 28 standard type profiles. The closer the distance, the more you match that type right now; hidden types only appear on specific paths.
