Personome

The science behind Personome

Every limitation, every validation result, every thing we do not know yet - published here. The questions stay protected.

Why no type?

People do not come in boxes. Personome reports continuous scores with uncertainty bands because two people near the middle of a trait can be almost identical while a type label would force them apart.

What Personome measures

Personome measures six continuous dimensions informed by the HEXACO model: Curiosity, Structure, Energy, Warmth, Sensitivity and Integrity.

How sure are we?

V1 uses provisional literature-proxy norms until Personome's own data supports empirical norms. Derived views are marked indicative until criterion studies are complete.

What we do not know yet

Self-report is a lens, not a window. Norms are young. Derived views are hypotheses until validated. Personome is not a clinical instrument.

Trust comes from published validation results including nulls, visible limitations, a study status board and signed external reviewer attestations - not from exposing raw questions or formulas.
