What the PEIQ measures

Five Personality Factors and Six Emotional Abilities

The PEIQ combines two complementary lenses to explain workplace behavior more fully than either perspective alone.

Personality Factors

  • Extraversion
  • Agreeableness
  • Openness to change
  • Conscientiousness
  • Emotional stability

Emotional Abilities

  • Self-awareness
  • Awareness of others
  • Using emotions
  • Understanding emotions
  • Self-management
  • Managing relationships

Scores should be considered together and interpreted in relation to the person’s role, goals and circumstances. A high or low result is not automatically a strength or limitation.

Optional AI-assisted exploration

Explore PEIQ Findings More Deeply with AI

After receiving the report, participants and practitioners can use ChatGPT or another capable generative AI tool to explore the findings conversationally.

  • Explore interactions between personality and EI
  • Identify reinforcing and balancing patterns
  • Relate findings to work and relationships
  • Prepare focused coaching questions
  • Build a strengths-based development plan

The PEIQ report remains the primary source. AI does not score the questionnaire, conduct a new assessment or replace the participant’s experience, relevant context and professional judgment. Output should always be checked against the report.
