About LQ Metrics

LQ Metrics are normative psychometric tools.  This means the reports offer a robust insight into an individual's personality rather than allowing a person to paint a picture of themselves to suit what they believe the tester is looking for.

Recruiting, retaining and developing good people is increasingly important, so anything that 'gives you an edge' will always be useful.

LQ Metrics tools are concerned with how you typically behave, such as the way you relate to others, or the way you approach and solve problems. They explore personality characteristics relevant to the world of work.

What is Psychometrics?

Psychology is a diverse and exciting field. As pioneers in a relatively youthful science psychologists worldwide strive to improve every aspect of human life, from planning urban construction and zoning to human-computer interaction. Across all disciplines of psychology there is a common thread that unites all researchers and scientists in the field. This unifying discipline is psychometrics.

The following are definitions of the word Psychometrics:

• The science of psychological measurement
• The psychological theory or technique of mental measurement directed toward the mind specifically in its cognitive function
• The systematic use of tests to quantify psychophysical behaviour, abilities and problems and to make predictions about psychological performance
• The use of tests to measure skill, knowledge, intelligence, capacities, or aptitudes and to make predictions about performance
