Personal Capacity Analysis (PCA)
Instructions
This personality test is for use by Freezone practitioners and their clients
only. Click here to read our
legal disclaimer and copyright notice.
Please note, the results of this test can be quite evaluative for a client.
Some clients may become offended or troubled by the result if not done under
supervision. The practitioner may therefore prefer to have the client take
the test in the practitioner's presence and then the practitioner pushes the
"Done" button to read the
result. The practitioner can then go over the result with the client at a
later date in a formal setting where the result can be explained and
client's questions can be answered.
1. At the start of the test there are two preliminary questions that ask for
the test person's gender and whether the test person is at least 18 or not. These questions need to be answered in order
to get the results. They are followed by 210 questions which are generally very easy to answer. A fast reader
who has done the test before can probably get through it in under 20 minutes, but other people
may find that 40 or even 60 minutes are required.
2. When answering the questions, click one of the five columns next to each question:
The first column is marked "Y" and means definitely so, yes, or nearly always yes.
The second column is marked "+" and means mostly yes, yes more than no.
The third column is marked "M" and means maybe, don't know, unsure or sometimes yes and sometimes no.
The fourth column is marked "-" and means mostly no, no more than yes.
The fifth column is marked "N" and means definitely not, no or nearly always no.
You, the test person, should choose the option that most closely matches
your experience.
3. If your answer to a question now is different to how you might have
answered
in the past, the present answer is what is wanted.
4. Some questions may seem not to apply to you, the test person. For example
there is a question that concerns whether you plan to have a large family,
which older people may consider does not apply to them. If you come across a
question which apparently does not apply, answer it as if
you were in a position where it did apply.
5. When you have finished the test, click the button marked "Done" towards the bottom of
the page. Click it just once. The result will be calculated and soon be given.
6. If you wish to print a copy of the results page, do so immediately when you get there.
The results are not stored anywhere and you will not be able to come back to your results
later.
7. We do not ask for your email address or any other
information by which you can be personally identified.
